Cross Streets: Kingston Rd & V.P. ** Directions: East of VP North of Kingston. Lawlor, we love you. Quiet enough to slow down, close enough to never miss a thing. Kingston Road Village makes a big city feel like a small one, and that's what draws you in.Out front, a mature Japanese maple shades a porch made for sitting. Coffee in the morning, wine in the evening, close enough to wave at neighbours and private enough that most walkers won't even know you're there. Unless you want them to. Step inside and the light gets you first, moving through the main floor most of the day and landing right where the kitchen needs it. Open layout, real storage, a peninsula built for more than dishes. Upstairs, three large bedrooms, including a substantial primary, with treed sightlines from almost every window. Two full bathrooms. Downstairs, a basement that becomes whatever the week calls for. Then the backyard. Massive, with a deck built for birthday parties and barbecues, low maintenance turf so you're hosting instead of mowing, and a two storey shed with more storage than most garages.Two-car laneway parking, which around here counts as a small miracle. Coffee at Black Canary. Wings at the Green Dragon. The Glen Stewart Ravine two minutes south. Beaches Montessori, then Adam Beck, then Glen Ames, then Malvern, all close enough to walk. The subway, streetcar, and Danforth GO put Union Station fourteen minutes away, but once you've seen this backyard, you might not feel like leaving. (id:27476)
