About this home

Natural light is the first thing you notice at 52 Shaftesbury Ave. It carries through every room across all four finished levels. An end-unit position brings extra light, added privacy, and a fenced front side yard, mostly garden. Fully renovated throughout: tall ceilings, richly stained oak hardwood, crown mouldings, custom millwork, all executed to a level of finish that rewards close inspection. The main floor centres on a double-sided fireplace shared between the living and dining rooms. It warms both spaces without closing them off. The custom kitchen is built to the same standard: integrated cabinetry, stone countertops, premium appliances, and a breakfast bar that suits a quiet morning as well as it does hosting. On the second floor, a den with its own fireplace, custom built-ins and access to a private treetop deck makes a proper home office, or a reading room you'll actually use. An additional bedroom and full bath round out the level. The entire third floor is the primary suite, ensuite included, with the quiet that a floor to yourself brings. The lower level is fully finished: a recreation room with wet bar, guest bedroom and full bath, anchored by its own fireplace. A private one-car garage rounds out the home. Steps from Summerhill Subway Station, the Summerhill Market and the trails of David A. Balfour Park. No Smoking. No Pets.

Moe’s TakeTeam Asgarian · Broker
Worth a personal read

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 leases and give you a straight answer on what it will really take.

Its public catchment (Cottingham Junior Public School) tests around the provincial average, a steady, family-friendly draw. The full EQAO breakdown is below.

On location, this is a very walkable address with everyday errands close by. Summerhill is about a 1-minute walk away. Walkable, transit-friendly spots tend to hold value and widen your resale pool.

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.

  • Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled.
  • Upscale kitchen: a genuine value driver, verify the appliances, stone, and finishes in person.
  • Primary suite: a key comfort and resale feature.
  • Hardwood floors: quality hardwood is durable and broadly desirable.
