About this home

In one of Toronto's most prestigious pockets, an exceptional residence awaits. Fully renovated and reimagined in Forest Hill South, 217 Chaplin Crescent offers a refined, design-forward lifestyle only moments from prestigious schools, the Beltline Trail, boutique shopping, and transit. The open-concept main floor makes an immediate statement, wrapped in custom architectural panelling and built-in cabinetry that lend warmth, texture, and a sense of tailored luxury. Sunlight pours through oversized windows, illuminating the seamless flow between living, dining, and kitchen spaces. The chef-inspired kitchen anchors the floor with sleek cabinetry and generous prep space, while a striking centre island features an integrated family table. The large walk-out to a sun-drenched deck, blurs the line between the polished interior and serene outdoor living. Ascend to a primary retreat designed to indulge, complete with a wall of custom built-in closets and a spa-inspired ensuite finished with a custom double vanity - a private sanctuary of calm. Two further bedrooms offer versatility and generous proportions, the second appointed with a bespoke desk nook (or convert to a walk-in dressing room), the third with abundant closet space. Second-floor laundry adds an effortless layer of convenience. The fully finished lower level is equally considered, offering two additional bedrooms or sophisticated home offices, a sleek kitchenette, and a separate entrance - a seamless suite ideal for guests, extended family, or potential rental income. Outside, you have parking for 5 cars and double gates for addition privacy and security. The backyard is a private oasis: an expansive entertainer's deck, refined interlock patio and driveway, and a fully finished and insulated garage that can be used as a studio or living space. Lots of green space backing directly onto a tranquil walking trail, offering rare privacy and an enviable connection to nature.

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

On schools, this address is zoned for Oriole Park Junior Public School, one of the higher-rated public schools in the area. A strong catchment tends to hold value and widen your resale pool, especially with family buyers.

On location, this is a very walkable address with everyday errands close by. Chaplin Cres at Duncannon Dr 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.

  • Separate entrance / basement suite: rental or in-law income potential, if it is legally registered and retrofit-compliant.
  • Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled.
  • Addition / added square footage: more space lifts value when it is permitted and well integrated, verify the permits.
  • Open-concept layout: modern, sought-after flow.
  • Sold as-is / needs work: budget for renovation, the price should reflect the condition.
  • Income potential
  • Value driver
  • Lifestyle
  • Weigh carefully

Estimates only, not a mortgage quote or pre-approval.

Income potential: the basement has a separate entrance, which often supports a rentable in-law or second suite. That can lift real rent well above the figure above and help carry the mortgage. Ask us about permitted use in this area.

Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.

Talk about the numbers

Estimates 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.
