About this home
A once-in-a-generation opportunity in one of the city's most prestigious enclaves, welcome to 7 Alderbrook Dr. This is not just a property, it's a canvas for your family's legacy. Set on an extraordinary 1.4-acre double lot with 160 feet of frontage and a rare pie-shaped depth of 295 feet that opens dramatically toward the ravine, this estate-sized parcel offers an unparalleled sense of space, privacy, and possibility. The backyard is like something out of a dream, lush, expansive, and backing directly onto untouched ravine forest. A sparkling pool anchors the landscape, while the lower level walks out to a generous flat area perfect for a custom putting green, sports court, or luxury garden retreat. Whether it's kids running free, elegant entertaining under the stars, or quiet mornings with nature as your backdrop, this outdoor space delivers. The existing home is solid, well-maintained, and offers immediate comfort, but the real potential lies in what comes next. Renovate, expand, or design and build a custom residence from the ground up. Few lots offer this level of frontage, depth, and natural setting, especially in such a coveted location. Just minutes from top-rated schools, upscale shopping, and fine dining, yet nestled in serene surroundings, this property strikes a rare balance between convenience and retreat. If you've been waiting for the right property to build your forever home this is it.

Heads up: the asking price here sits well above what comparable listings suggest. That can point to premium finishes, a bigger lot, or simply an ambitious ask, so it is worth a close look before you offer. I would not put an automatic figure on this one. Tell me you are interested and I will pull the most comparable recent sales and give you a straight answer on what it will really take.
Ask Moe if this price is fairIts public catchment (York Mills Collegiate Institute) tests around the provincial average, a steady, family-friendly draw. The full EQAO breakdown is below.
On location, it is moderately walkable, so some daily errands are within reach and for the rest you will likely drive. Lawrence Ave East at The Bridle Path is about a 5-minute walk away.
What the listing highlightsThese are claims from the listing. The only way to know for sure is to see it in person, and I am happy to book you a private showing.
- Ravine lot: privacy and premium value, but confirm the buildable area and any conservation limits.
- Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled.
- Pool: lifestyle appeal, but adds maintenance, insurance, and resale is mixed.
- Premium lot / gardens: lot size and privacy hold value and cannot be changed, verify frontage, depth, and any easements.

Talk to Team Asgarian about your options
Rates and programs change often. We will connect you with a trusted mortgage professional and build a plan that fits your budget and goals.
Estimates only, not a mortgage quote or pre-approval. Figures use Canadian semi-annual compounding, current minimum down-payment rules, CMHC premium tiers, and Ontario (plus Toronto, when selected) land transfer tax. Actual rates, taxes, insurance, and closing costs vary by lender and property. Confirm every number with your mortgage professional.
Investor snapshot
Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.
Talk about the numbersEstimates only. Rent is modelled on above-grade size and local norms, so a finished basement or second suite (a separate entrance often means one) can push real rent well above this. Taxes, fees, and vacancy vary by property, and cap rate is before financing. A starting point, not a final number, let us run the real ones with you.
