Description & details

Some homes are built for sale. This one is for living. Set on a quiet, intimate stretch of Babcombe Drive in the heart of Bayview Glen, 129 Babcombe offers something increasingly special: the warmth of long-time ownership, thoughtfully renovated and expanded around the way a family actually lives. With over 3,200 sq. ft. of well-designed living space, its five-bedroom layout offers remarkable flexibility. Two main-floor bedrooms are ideal for multigenerational living, aging parents, guests or a private office, while three bedrooms upstairs include an exceptionally spacious primary retreat with ensuite. A soaring two-storey foyer sets the tone, with warm hardwood floors, crown moulding, custom millwork and built-ins throughout. The generous kitchen features extensive wood cabinetry, stone counters and abundant storage, while a proper formal dining room and expansive family room offer space to gather before opening directly to the private backyard and beautifully maintained in-ground pool. Then there is the land: a flat, private 60 x 149 ft lot offering exceptional space today and exciting possibilities for the future. A two-car garage and finished lower level with natural-stone fireplace add another layer of function to a home where space was designed to be used, not simply admired. All within walking distance of Bayview Glen Public School and in the Thornlea Secondary School catchment. This isn't a house assembled for the market. It has been carefully designed, thoughtfully improved and genuinely enjoyed by the family who called it home. Now, it's ready for the next one.

The data only goes so far — condition, light and layout are worth seeing in person, with a home inspection, before you commit.
