1 BR/1 BA, Extremely RARE Riverdale FIND!! 1+1 bedroom heritage MANSION overlooking Riverdale Park at Danforth & Broadview
A near once in a lifetime opportunity awaits you at 646 Broadview Avenue. Perched atop a soon-to-be lush green lawn and overlooking Riverdale Park, rests one of the most esteemed residential mansions and Heritage buildings in Toronto. Welcoming yet massive pillars and a hanging chandelier over a lovely front porch invite you through a beveled glass entryway where you will absolutely be taken back to a time when details were painstakingly preserved. This home is truly fit for a King or Queen.
Classical dark Edwardian woodwork immediately impresses you upon entering this one of a kind property. Your first impression is quite simply..."WOW"! Look straight ahead to find a decadent fireplace and mantel with original wainscoting throughout. Look up to take in the dark stained ceiling wood beams and a winding oak staircase that will draw your gaze to the phenomenal stained glass window that allows light to cascade throughout this grand entrance to your new home.
Now for the best part... A beautifully framed large wood door greets the arrival to your spacious and architectural suite. You will at first be pleased to find a rare entryway to greet your guests & hang their coats and shoes. Turn right from here and you will be led into an expansive combined living and dining room complete with a functional wood fireplace, mantel, wainscoting and impressive original decorative wood pillars framing artistically curved ceilings. Massive windows grace this space allowing light to pour in when desired.
Adjacent to the Living/Dining area is a perfectly appointed second bedroom or den. It boasts an original fireplace insert and mantel, original hardwood and those incredibly high ceilings found throughout your home. This space is perfect as a home office, a den, a spare room or a nursery (current use).
Separating this room from your very bright & airy master bedroom is a full 3 piece bathroom with lots of room for 2 or even 3! The master bedroom is an absolute retreat with its soaring ceilings, oversized windows and door leading to a small outdoor space to enjoy. Oh, and of course you have private laundry here too!
Lastly, your kitchen will finally allow you to store all those dishes! Loads of counter and cupboard space abound in this space, which will be perfect for dinner parties with friends and family.
