Time on the market: Eight days

There were two offers to purchase this brick home in the picturesqu­e Old Millside community, close to parks, the subway and the amenities offered on Bloor Street West.

Houses “priced appropriat­ely are selling in eight days in this neighbourh­ood," says listing agent Andrea Morrison.

This bright home has four bedrooms and a floor plan that offers a great separation of space, she says.

A light, neutral décor provides a fresh backdrop for formal and informal entertaini­ng, as well as comfortabl­e everyday living.

The sunny living room has a gas fireplace. The open-concept dining room has a bow window.

The white kitchen has a marble counter and a contrastin­g dark wood breakfast bar. Pot lights ensure a bright work space.

Casual entertaini­ng space includes a lower-level recreation room with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace.

The second floor includes a master suite with his-andhers closets and a skylight. Two other bedrooms and a loft are also on this floor.

“I love the house,” the owner says. “It’s a centre hall plan. I love that one bedroom and a bathroom are away from the others” for added privacy.

For anyone who likes to stay active, Etienne Brule Park, Lessard Park, Humber Marshes and Kings Mill Pond are all nearby.

“The person who purchased the house appreciate­s the merits of the area, the local schools and the proximity to Bloor Street,” Morrison says.

The owner says she will miss the neighbours and the area’s sense of community. “The hardest thing is to leave the neighbourh­ood after 35 years.”

The 44x98-foot lot features a fully fenced backyard that’s a “gardener’s paradise,” Morrison says. It has stone patios, a waterfall and fully fenced gardens. Multiple seating and eating areas provide plenty of space to spend time with family and friends.

The property also has a private driveway and a built-in one-car garage.
