On one of the prettiest sun dappled and tree lined streets in prime Bloor West Village sits 53 Woodside Avenue, a detached home that has been updated throughout, while keeping the character and charm of this 1940s gem intact. The updated front porch invites you into the entryway, separate from the living room. The main floor has been designed with effortless entertaining in mind. The spacious living room opens into the dining room with plenty of space for a dinner party. Pass through from the kitchen allows for sightlines while preparing your meal but still being in the midst of your guests. The kitchen opens into a smart main floor office space, which walks out to large south facing deck, terraced landscaped yard, and turfed play area or second dining space. The second floor holds 2 great sized bedrooms, principal bedroom with wall to wall closets, and second bedroom overlooking the south facing yard. The finished lower level with great ceiling height contains a recreation room which can be used as a guest room or teen suite, gym space, updated 3 piece bath and storage. Located in Runnymede and Humbercrest PS catchments - two of the west end's most desirable public schools, and a quick stroll to great shops, restaurants, and transit along Bloor Street.
