13 Rushbrook Avenue

People are rushing to live on Rushbrooke. Totally renovated home with all the essentials to entertain, work from home and raise a family. Three full bedrooms (plus a spare bedroom in the basement), two full washrooms and a powder room on the main floor. A modern kitchen with lots of storage, that walks out to an arbour deck. Walk down to a lush patio connected via a glass-panel overhead door to a new, full size, garage/studio. The garage is a recent build, big enough for storage and a full-size SUV, with a vaulted roof, skylight, power overhead door and is eligible for a 2-storey 700SF laneway suite, in conformance with the current by-laws. The home’s basement is water proofed, has a sump pump, plenty of ceiling height for a plush rec room and the spare bedroom. This home is delightful and efficient. Stylish and practical. It checks all the boxes.

The Community

Head north to the hip tip of Leslieville. Daily shopping, café culture, and purveyors of the funky and fine. This home is enhanced by a convenient urban village life. Favourites along Queen East include Te Aro Coffee Roasters, Good Neighbour, Greta Solomon’s, Ascari Enoteca, and for those who crave something sweet, the always enticing Bobbette and Belle Bakery.  

Leslie Grove Park is just around the corner and a favourite haunt for kiddies. Greenwood Park is up two blocks and has something for everyone: Two lit ball diamonds, multipurpose sports field, a massive off-leash dog area, community garden, splash pad and children’s playground, outdoor pool and Toronto’s first covered outdoor artificial ice rink (winter skating and summer ball hockey). There is also a pleasure ice skating trail – perfect for learning to skate in the winter and ride a bike in the summer!

This is the ideal location for nature, water and fitness lovers. It’s just a short stroll, bike, or blade away from the sanctuary of Leslie Spit and the sun and fun of the Beach. Imagine, a location with accessible cardio cleansing, contemplation and day-dreaming just steps from your door!   So too, bike lanes and 24-hour street car. For those plotting a quick escape: Queen East to the DVP ramp or Carlaw to Lake Shore Boulevard for easy access to the  Gardiner Expressway… but who would want to leave this lovely home?
