As you arrive, the front porch immediately sets the tone —spacious, east-facing, and perfect for morning coffee while watching the neighbourhood come to life. A mature maple frames the windows with greenery, offering privacy without blocking the sunshine. 

From the moment you walk in, it’s clear this house is ready to welcome you. Durable wide-plank floors, freshly painted interiors, and thoughtful details give the home a warm yet refreshed feel. The entryway is generous and practical, easily handling the daily comings and goings of family life—whether it’s strollers, groceries, or hockey bags.  

Just when you think the main floor has shown you everything, 816 Windermere Ave reveals a little more. A clever main-floor addition expands the home with a sunny home office, a spacious mudroom loaded with an entire wall of custom storage, and an oversized window that frames those special backyard views.

This multi-functional space adds real ease to everyday life—drop the backpacks, tuck away the sports gear, or carve out a perfectly placed work-from-home nook. It’s an upgrade that doesn’t just add square footage, it adds lifestyle. 

Downstairs, the recently renovated basement delivers the kind of bonus space every family dreams about. Large, comfy, and versatile, it’s perfect for family movie nights, a kids’ play zone, or even a home gym. An electric fireplace adds warmth, while a smart layout makes the whole space feel inviting rather than just “extra.” 

A wall of built-in storage plus a spacious cold room keeps everything neatly tucked away, proving that function can be just as stylish as form. 

Windermere Avenue and Upper Bloor West village is more than just an address. It’s a true community—tree-lined, family-filled, and buzzing with the energy of neighbours who know each other by name. Kids ride bikes, parents catch up on porches, and there’s a genuine sense of belonging.
