Loved and meticulously maintained by the same owners for over 40 years, this deceptively spacious 5-level backsplit sits on a private, sun-drenched pie-shaped lot. Inside, enjoy 4 bedrooms and 3 upgraded bathrooms, including a primary suite overlooking the backyard and forest with its own private ensuite. The ground floor features formal living and dining rooms, a large eat-in kitchen with a garden window, a cozy family room with a wood fireplace, and a flexible 4th bedroom next to an updated 3-piece bath-perfect for guests, extended family, or a home office. Further down, the lower level offers direct walk-up access to the yard, bright above-grade windows, a cold cellar, and massive storage. The lowest level includes a dedicated workshop with 3 large above-grade windows. Step outside into your private backyard oasis backing onto the ravine stretching toward Lake Ontario. Host summer gatherings around the in-ground pool, stone patio, and perennial gardens. A fully fenced side lawn keeps kids and pets safe, with direct side-door access right next to the laundry room and ground-floor bath. On the opposite side, a dedicated parking pad with a double-gate entry gives you secure, out-of-sight space for your boat, trailer, or other toys! Located in Centennial/West Rouge-Toronto's only high-rise-free neighbourhood, surrounded by water on 3 sides-you're supported by the active CCRA (local community association), keeping residents connected and informed for over 75 years!

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $675/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.
Negotiation Opportunity
At 76 days on site, this property has exceeded the typical selling timeline for Rouge. This creates leverage for buyers. The seller may be motivated by carrying costs, life circumstances, or previous deals falling through. I'd recommend a strategic offer below asking with terms that favour you.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Rouge 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.
Family-Friendly Layout
4 bedrooms hits the sweet spot for most families. You'll have room for 2-3 children plus a home office or guest room. This is the most sought-after configuration for families relocating to Rouge. Good resale value as demand remains consistent.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 3 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
