Location. Location. Location. Pick up your kayak, open your back gate and there is Lake Ontario. You are that close to the water.

The recently renovated lower level with a spa shower could make for an ideal in-law setup. Located in a cozy sought after neighbourhood on Martin Goodman Trail, this home is perfect for couples or families with an active lifestyle, or those seeking a relaxing cottage escape while still being close to downtown Toronto. At the end of your yard is the Rotary Peace Park, which offers a children's playground, a wonderful outdoor swimming pool and splash pad, two tennis courts, a baseball diamond, lawn bowling, and pickleball, with other parks steps away, and the Ford Performance Centre professional and recreational hockey facility only a five-minute drive.
