House of the Week: 58 Beaufort Road

Address: 58 Beaufort Road
Neighbourhood: The Beach
Agent: Marc Trumphour, Real Estate Homeward, Brokerage
Price: $1,695,000

The Place: A three-bedroom, four-washroom east-side getaway, perfectly situated between Kingston Road, Queen Street East and Glen Stewart Park.

Bragging Rights: With coffered ceilings, leaded windows, wooden floors and cozy oversized leather sofas, this home looks like it’s been plucked straight out of the pages of a Restoration Hardware catalogue.

Big Selling Point: Bathe in natural light, literally, with the two enormous skylights in the upstairs master and guest washrooms. As a bonus, the kid’s bedroom with the skylight right above the bed would be the perfect room for any teen children who prefer to sleep in.

Possible Deal Breaker: The home is built on an incline, which makes for a nice backyard, but also a bit of a climb to the front door. Multiply that by, say, a heavy grocery run and determine your own threshold for compulsory daily exercise.

By the Numbers:

• $1,695,000
• $7,335 in taxes, estimated (2014)
• 13 stairs to the front door
• 4 washrooms
• 3 bedrooms
• 3 parking spaces
• 3 enormous skylights
• 2 storeys

  1. The price seems reasonable for such a beautiful home. I’d rather go for something like this than even the some of the great looking condos we’ve seen here. Seems to be of better value.
