Welcome to 865 Windermere Ave — the kind of house that makes your heart skip a beat before you even step inside. This fully detached, newly renovated home in the quiet pocket of Upper Bloor West Village checks every single box on the modern family wish list: big rooms, a chef’s kitchen, plenty of bathrooms, tons of natural light, and stylish finishes that feel warm and welcoming—not overdone. 

The curb appeal is on point, with a wide interlocked walkway, manicured landscaping, and a front façade that balances classic charm with contemporary edge. And then there’s the unicorn of Bloor West Village: a wide lot with a private driveway. That’s not just rare—it’s practically legendary.

Main Floor Goals 

Open the front door and exhale. The open-concept main floor is designed for real life, with space to stretch out, live large, and move through your day without bumping into each other. From the front mudroom (loaded with closed storage) to the wall of glass at the back, everything is geared toward comfort, ease, and flow. 

The living room is anchored by a stunning gas fireplace framed by a custom wood-paneled feature wall—elevated, elegant, and totally cozy. It’s the perfect backdrop for family hangouts, late-night movie marathons, or low-key wine nights. 

One of the standout features is the clear sightline right through to the backyard, thanks to a full wall of glass off the kitchen and dining area. It creates a feeling of openness that’s rare in city homes and brings the outside in all year long. 

Kitchen Envy Activated (YES, Please!)

Let’s talk about the kitchen—because it’s a showstopper. Custom slim shaker cabinetry in a two-tone palette (navy + white), Quartz countertops, and a large island for casual dining, baking with the kids, or just laying out the pizza on Friday night. 

There’s a dedicated coffee station and a spacious pantry, keeping your morning caffeine fix far from the cereal chaos. Storage is abundant—from deep drawers to cleverly concealed cabinetry—so everything has a place (and actually stays there). Bonus: this area doubles as a buffet or serving zone, seamlessly connected to the dining room for effortless entertaining. 

Best part? The kitchen flows straight into the dining room and out through oversized sliding doors to a huge deck that’s built for entertaining. Think summer barbecues, cozy fall dinners, and late-night conversations under the stars. 

A Room With A Leafy View...

Head upstairs to your primary retreat, where the vibe is pure calm. The bedroom is king-sized (literally and figuratively), with a big leafy view thanks to oversized windows and mature trees right out front—giving you total privacy and a hit of nature in every season. 

There’s a walk-in closet that’s built to handle everything from your puffer collection to your Sunday best. And the ensuite? Spa-like and spectacular. We’re talking double vanity, huge glass walk-in shower, and finishes that feel elevated without trying too hard. Add a cozy reading nook or morning yoga spot, and it’s your own private sanctuary. 

 

More Space Where It Counts!

Upstairs continues to deliver with two more spacious bedrooms, each with generous closets and big windows—ideal for kids, guests, or your work from home life. The main family bath is bright and beautifully designed, with a soaker tub and separate shower, so bedtime routines are smoother (and just a little bit more luxurious). 

 

And yes—there’s even more below ….

 

Downstairs, the fully finished basement doesn’t feel like a basement at all. Thanks to oversized above-grade windows, it’s bright and usable all day long. There’s a large rec room, a bonus bedroom or home office, laundry, a second mudroom (perfect for keeping things clean after backyard adventures), and a ton of extra storage. It’s the kind of flexible space that adapts to your needs now—and five years from now. 

Backyard Bliss & Beyond!

Step outside to a backyard that’s just the right size—private, east-facing, and perfect for real life. Grass for playing, room for a garden, and a deck with multiple zones for lounging, dining, and living your best al fresco life. 

And let’s not forget the location. Windermere Ave is quiet, tree-lined, and filled with neighbourly charm—a hidden pocket in the west end where families thrive. You’re a quick stroll from Bloor West Village’s best coffee shops, bakeries, and boutiques, with High Park just around the corner and Roncesvalles within easy reach. 

Top-rated schools, bike-friendly streets, easy transit access—it’s all here. 

Stroll Around Your New Neighbourhood

Welcome to Upper Bloor West Village, one of the most coveted pockets in Toronto’s west end. This quiet, family-friendly enclave is where kids still play on the street, neighbours catch up from their front porches, and community feels more like extended family.

From here, you’re perfectly positioned to enjoy some of the city’s most beloved areas—Baby Point, The Junction, Bloor West Village, and the Humber River are all just minutes away.

At 865 Windermere Ave, you’re close enough to the action—just a 15-minute stroll to The Junction’s boutique shops, restaurants, and bars—yet tucked away on a peaceful street that feels like a true escape. Prefer to stay local? Annette Street and Jane Street are right at your doorstep, offering cozy cafés, charming boutiques, and neighbourhood eats. For bigger adventures, Bloor Street and the TTC (both subway and bus) are just a short walk away.

And for families, there’s another major perk:

King George Junior Public School. With an impressive 9/10 Fraser Institute rating and a small catchment area, this highly regarded school delivers a more intimate learning experience, supported by a tight-knit, engaged parent community.
