Welcome to 85 Yorkleigh Avenue, a rare offering set on an extraordinary 1.15-acre lot backing onto the Humber Creek ravine. Surrounded by mature trees and complete privacy, this property offers a lifestyle seldom found within the city. The home's stone façade, manicured gardens, and inviting front porch create a setting that feels elegant, character-rich and grounded in nature. Inside, the home unfolds with distinctive timeless charm. The eat-in kitchen is a statement space, featuring exposed wood beams, a wood-burning fireplace, classic checkered flooring, and a seamless walkout to the grounds. The dining room is designed for intimate entertaining, complete with its own fireplace and custom built-ins, while the living room showcases a striking stone hearth and direct access to the sunroom. Wrapped in glass, the sunroom offers a tranquil, light-filled escape, perfect for year-round enjoyment with serene views of the surrounding ravine canopy. The main level features two bedrooms, including a peaceful primary retreat with double closets, alongside a well-appointed 3-piece bath. A vaulted loft above provides a versatile space ideal for guests, a studio, or a private hideaway. The walk-out lower level expands the home's functionality with a third bedroom, an office, 3-piece bath, laundry, and terra cotta stone flooring throughout, well-suited for extended family or flexible living arrangements. Outdoors, the grounds are no thing short of exceptional. Multiple seating areas, curated gardens, and natural pathways lead you through a private, tree-lined setting. Tucked within the ravine, a charming elevated treehouse offers a storybook 1 bedroom with a 3-piece bath retreat, a rare and whimsical feature that captures the essence of this unique property. Ideally positioned near Douglas B. Ford Park and the scenic Humber River Recreational Trail, with convenient access to reputable schools, shopping centres and easy access to Highway 401 and 427.
