Timeless Swansea Gem - First Time Offered in 68 Years! Nestled in the heart of Swansea Village, just one block south of Bloor on a beautiful, quiet, treelined street, this charming 3-bedroom detached brick home has been lovingly owned by the same family since 1957. A true Swansea treasure, it offers a rare opportunity to move into one of Toronto's most desirable neighbourhoods. Beautifully maintained and full of character, this home features generous principal rooms, bright eat-in kitchen, and a convenient mudroom with walk-out to a mature, landscaped backyard-perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Original details including hardwood floors, plate rail, stained glass windows, and a classic fireplace mantle add warmth and timeless charm throughout. A mutual driveway leads to a detached garage, providing practical parking and additional storage. Recent improvements include a new sewer line (inside and outside) with backwater valve and new kitchen stack (May 2016) and new roof shingles (April 2022)-important updates that offer peace of mind for years to come. Move in and enjoy as is, or bring your vision to life with updates and renovations to unlock this property's full potential. All within easy walking distance to Bloor Street shops and cafes, the subway, top-rated schools, Rennie Park, and the lake. A truly unbeatable location in the highly sought-after school district.
