299 St Clarens Avenue, Toronto, ON

Life on St Clarens. Welcome home to one of Torontos best kept secret... Brockton Village. This sprawling, historic, 5 bedroom stunner on a rarely seen semi-lot of 25FT is more than just square footage (although yes, theres lots of that with over 2,500 SQ FT across 4 floors). It's a unique blend of old-world charm, modern comfort, and one wildly relaxing custom-built sauna in the backyard. The home sits on a peaceful, tree-lined, one-way street that is surprisingly quiet given how ridiculously connected it is. Subway, streetcar, and bike lanes are just around the corner so you can get downtown, to High Park, or even Pearson, without breaking a sweat (unless you've just come out of the sauna, in which case: well done). Inside, you'll find spacious rooms, character-rich details (queue the stained glass), and plenty of light. The third floor even offers a view of the CN Tower, just in case you need a reminder you still live in the city. The spacious and open concept lower level featuring a separate entrance calls for endless potential. Step out back and you'll find a variety of thoughtfully built and well-loved vegetable and flower gardens, spacious enough for all your homegrown dreams. A 2 car garage off the rear laneway. And the ultimate showstopper: the WiFi-enabled 4-person sauna that you can fire up from your phone. Because nothing says inviting like a steamy escape waiting for you before you even take off your shoes.. But the real magic? The neighbourhood. Brockton Village has everything: Michelin Guide restaurants, family-run corner stores, the city's best No Frills (seriously), indie cafés, pubs, fruit markets, and a community vibe that is rare these days. Walk to Dufferin Grove or High Park, browse local shops on Dundas, Bloor, College, and Roncesvalles, or just enjoy the calm, friendly pace of a neighbourhood that has evolved thoughtfully over time. Life on St Clarens is sweet.
