About 23 Sylvan Ave
23 Sylvan Ave is a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom semi-detached house in Dufferin Grove, Toronto, listed for sale at an asking price of $1,099,000 (MLS® C14163360).
Welcome to 23 Sylvan Avenue, a three-bedroom semi-detached home steps from Dufferin Grove Park. Your front windows look onto one of the west end's most loved green spaces, home to the weekly farmers' market, the outdoor rink and some of the city's best community programming. You can enjoy it every day without getting in the car. You can move in and enjoy the home's original character, or put your own stamp on it with modern updates. The main floor has hardwood throughout, a charming living room and a separate dining room for gatherings. The spacious family room, brightened by two skylights, overlooks the kitchen and features a walk out to the lush backyard with a garden and patio. Upstairs are three bedrooms with hardwood floors and a four-piece bathroom, with plenty of room to update and personalize. The lower level adds a recreation room, a second four-piece bathroom, a cold storage room with walk-in closet and built-in shelving, and a separate side entrance, giving you flexibility for how the space is used down the road. Conveniences of the home include a newer owned Navien combi-boiler (2025), wall-mounted air conditioning, legal front pad parking, a garden shed and a garage. Dufferin Mall, College Street, the TTC and everyday shops, cafés, and top restaurants are all within walking distance. With the park right across the street, it's easy to feel part of the neighbourhood from the day you arrive. This home has space, character and a location that can't be replicated, so you can create something truly special here.
