Is this real life? Is this just fantasy?

At 143 Westlake, it’s both—an effortlessly stylish detached 2+1 bedroom, 2-bathroom home in a sought-after East York neighbourhood. With thoughtful renovations and a warm, inviting feel, this home carries on with the perfect balance of modern upgrades and timeless charm. Inside, a bright and airy main floor welcomes you, with a stunning white kitchen stealing the show. Thoughtfully designed with custom cabinetry, a subway tile backsplash, a spacious island, and a picture-perfect window framing the outdoors, it’s a space where cooking and conversation come naturally. The seamless flow to a private backyard retreat—framed by tall, whispering hedges—makes it easy to escape the city without ever leaving home. Downstairs, the newly underpinned and finished basement provides extra ceiling height and flexible living space—perfect for a home office, guest suite, or a cozy hideaway when you just want to let it go. Upstairs, the serene bedrooms offer a peaceful retreat, with stylish finishes throughout. Surrounded by tree-lined streets, parks, and local gems, you’ll love the convenience of Taylor Creek trails, Stan Wadlow Park, and vibrant spots like Old’s Cool General Store, East Toronto Coffee Co., and Press Vinyl Café all within easy reach. The GO Train, TTC, and quick routes downtown make commuting a breeze, whether you’re headed to work or out for a night in the city. With key upgrades including a new front porch, basement renovation, and refreshed landscaping, 143 Westlake is a home with everything you need—a place where you can finally say: this is the one.
