Leslieville Charmer Overlooking Jimmie Simpson Park
Welcome to 283 Booth Avenue! This is everything you love about Leslieville neatly wrapped into one dream package, a meticulously rebuilt charmer tucked away on the quiet north end of Jimmie Simpson Park.

It’s the kind of place where friends will want to pop by to say hello, and where priceless family memories will be made. Step inside and a certain sense of stillness is apparent, because not only were the floors fully updated in 2022, but the subfloors as well, right down to the joists. This means no creaks or wonky dips, just a firm solid step underfoot. At the west-facing dining room window a six-seater table fits in just right, offering sun-dappled picture frame views of the park across the street. The handsome white oak stairs (2022) anchor a living area that feels just as breezily uncluttered as your favourite café. Towards the rear, a main floor powder room (yes!) precedes a very smartly laid out kitchen, a goldilocks arrangement where space and storage are abundant yet everything remains within easy reach.

From here, catch your first glimpse of a genuinely cottage-like backyard, a majestic canopy of trees overlooking a spacious deck, with a winding garden path and cheerful plantings framing your new happy place. From morning coffee to evening barbecuing — what more could one ask for? The deep 115 foot lot means that the rear 2-car parking (yes!) feels neatly tucked away, not subtracting at all from the generously proportioned backyard space.

Upstairs, a King-bed-friendly primary bedroom faces west over the park, along with two good-sized secondary bedrooms and a crisp and clean bathroom. Trees and greenery form the view in all directions. Just like the main level, both the floors and subfloors upstairs have been fully updated and are creak free. Downstairs is your ideal rec room space, with ample storage and additional laundry. The nuts and bolts of the house have been carefully attended to, with new furnace, AC, and tankless water heater; new siding (at both rear and side); 240v electrical service to the rear, all done since 2022. This is Booth Avenue living. The park is just across the street, the locally owned shops on Queen are just at the end of the block, and yet hardly any cars go by. The lake is within easy reach too.

This is Leslieville at its peak, a happy melding of city life and nature that is next to impossible to duplicate anywhere else.
