Victorian elegance meets modern living
Welcome to 272 Sterling Road, an exceptional residence where timeless Victorian elegance meets modern living. Lovingly maintained since 1999, this home masterfully blends its original characteristics, such as soaring high ceilings and the original newel post, with extensive, thoughtful upgrades.
Located in a vibrant, walkable neighbourhood (Walk Score 96/100), you are steps away from MOCA, fantastic eateries like Terroni, Sugo and Kibo Sushi, grocery stores, the LCBO, local coffee shops, and boutiques. There is easy access to TTC, UP Express, and it is close to Lakeshore Blvd for transit and travel. A short walk brings you to High Park, Roncesvalles, The Junction, and Parkdale. This meticulously cared-for property presents a rare turnkey opportunity, combining heritage charm with contemporary ease in a coveted Toronto location.
The heart of this home is its stunning, brand-new kitchen (2023), complete with all-new appliances, under-cabinet lighting, and a water filtration system. Enjoy sanctuaries like the double-insulated den, and benefit from practical updates, such as the large closet in the main bedroom and a cleverly converted attic storage room.
The outdoor oasis includes a spacious 14×32-foot patio, a mirrored pergola that enhances the expansive feel, and a renovated deck with integrated storage and seating. Significant upgrades ensure peace of mind: a new direct-vent water heater (last year) and gas furnace (direct vent), central air, lifetime warranty gutter protectors, new windows and doors (including “Renewal” by Andersen with a full warranty), exterior insulation on the upper rear, and enhanced attic insulation (2023). Unique time capsules hidden within the walls add to its charm.

About the Neighbourhood | Junction Triangle
A local residents group that organized under the name Fuzzy Boundaries initiated a year long campaign encouraging residents to put forward and debate potential names for their neighbourhood. In the end more than 200 names were suggested and 674 votes were cast. The winning name announced in March 2010 is Junction Triangle. Ironically this was the first name coined for this neighbourhood back in the 1970s. In recent years the Junction Triangle has undergone a major revitalization that has seen much of its former industrial core replaced by residential lofts and townhomes. This neighbourhood has attracted the attention of developers, due to its close proximity to High Park and the revitalized Junction Gardens shopping district on Dundas Street West, as well as its easy access to the Bloor subway line. A new signature landmark in the neighbourhood is the West Toronto Railpath, a unique, multi-use pathway that runs along a 2.1-kilometre stretch of abandoned rail line purchased by the City of Toronto in 2002. The north trailhead is located at Cariboo Avenue, north of Dupont Street and west of Osler Street. The trail extends south to the intersection of Dundas Street and Sterling Road with bridge crossings at Dupont Avenue and Bloor Street. The West Toronto Railpath is a significant off-road component of the Toronto Bike Plan. The railpath features four sculptural artworks by John Dickson, collectively named Frontier.
