51 Harcourt Avenue — Semi-Detached

Good things come in twos on Harcourt. Two self-contained, design-forward suites. Two distinct lifestyles under one roof. Live in one, share with family, or claim the whole thing for yourself and never look back. The beauty here is having options, and having them in pairs. The upper suite unfolds dramatically over two airy levels with floor-to-ceiling windows, authentic exposed brick, and a wide-open layout that actually lives the way people want to live. The kitchen overlooks the dining and living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, while a discreet laundry/storage room keeps things practical. The private deck with gas BBQ hookup makes for easy entertaining. Upstairs you'll find two generous bedrooms with ample closet space, a 4pc bath, and a skylight that pours in natural light. The lower, two-level suite proves the sequel may be even better than the first. A dramatic floor-to-ceiling bay window with motorized blinds floods the space with light, while high ceilings, clean lines, and clever storage bring style and substance. The kitchen means business with a 36" Thermador gas range, built-in drawer microwave, wine nook, breakfast peninsula, and eat-in area that doubles as a home office. A tucked-away powder room and built-ins keep things sleek. Walk out to the south-facing deck with its own gas BBQ hookup, then head downstairs where heated floors and a wood-burning fireplace warm a sprawling rec room that's perfect for movie nights, work-from-home life, or both. A second laundry is tucked under the stairs, while beyond sits a spa-inspired bath and generous bedroom with a walkout to the fully fenced backyard. Outside, charming low-maintenance gardens and rare two-car laneway parking make city living easy. Withrow Park is practically your backyard, while the Danforth, Leslieville, Line 2 subway, bike lanes, cafés, restaurants, and top-rated Frankland School are all moments away. Smart, stylish, adaptable. A very good idea, twice over.
