Some homes are all about the neighbourhood, and 396 Bartlett Avenue North puts you right in the middle of one worth discovering. Geary Avenue is just around the corner, with its cafés, restaurants, breweries and creative energy, while the newly expanded Geary Avenue Park adds a welcome stretch of green space close to home. When you're ready to slow down, there's a covered front porch for a morning coffee and a backyard courtyard shaded by a mature grapevine-an inviting spot for dinner outside or an evening with friends. Inside, this 2-storey home has the space to settle in, with comfortable living and dining areas, an eat-in kitchen that opens to the backyard, three bedrooms on the second floor and two additional rooms on the third that can adapt to whatever you need next. The finished lower level offers even more room to spread out, with its own living area, kitchen and bathroom. And in a neighbourhood where parking matters, the detached two-car garage off the laneway is a real bonus. Dovercourt Park, local shops and TTC connections are all nearby. It's the kind of place where you can enjoy the best of the city, then come home to a space that feels entirely your own.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $625/sqft, this is priced below the area average. This could represent genuine value, but let's investigate why. In my experience, underpriced homes often have deferred maintenance, unfavourable layouts, or motivated sellers. I'll help you determine which it is.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Bloor West Village are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Excellent Flexibility
With 5 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Bloor West Village.
