Description & details

Where ravine tranquility, Queen St convenience and lakefront living come together. This is quintessential Beach life! 139 Hammersmith Ave sits on an exceptionally rare 54-ft-wide corner lot with a two-car private drive, in the heart of one of Toronto's most beloved neighbourhoods. Lovingly restored and thoughtfully renovated, this Beach home blends timeless character with modern-day function. A welcoming front porch and classic centre-hall plan set the tone. Offering over 2200 sq ft of above-grade living. Generous principal rooms, oversized windows and 9-ft ceilings create an airy, expansive, calm feel throughout. Leafy neighbourhood vistas frame nearly every room. The grand living room, spacious dining room and eat-in kitchen are equally suited to everyday living and entertaining. A rare main-floor fourth bedroom, currently used as a home office, sits beside a full bathroom, making it ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Upstairs, the private primary suite features a sitting area, incredible storage, and 4-piece ensuite. Two additional spacious bedrooms, another full bathroom and coveted second-floor laundry complete the upstairs layout. The finished lower level adds 1,118 sq ft of bright, open living space with a large recreation room, gym, fifth bedroom, full bathroom and generous storage room. Outdoor living is every bit as special. The fully fenced backyard, complete with a treehouse, backs onto a quiet dead-end lane where neighbours gather and children play - a wonderful extension of the home and community. Walk to the lakefront boardwalk, parks and trails of Glen Stewart Ravine, and enjoy Queen Street's independent shops, cafés, restaurants and amenities. Located in the sought-after school districts for Williamson Road Junior PS (French immersion), Glen Ames Senior PS and Malvern Collegiate. With a Walk Score of 97 and the 501 streetcar just 2 minutes away, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy space, character, nature and quintessential Beach living!

The data only goes so far — condition, light and layout are worth seeing in person, with a home inspection, before you commit.
