6 Oaklands Avenue - SUMMERHILL
Though it is a semi, this 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom home steps to Yorkville and the Summerhill shops on Yonge is a pretty good spot.
The outside isn't the best but the inside has had a recent reno. The walk in at the front into a mudroom in the basement is terrific for families.
And so is the layout (check out the virtual tour here). There is a really nice basement for families and all the bedrooms are a good size.
I wish I could see the backyard because though it is west facing, it faces into a condo building. It is only about 4 stories tall and not RIGHT in the backyard but still. You can see it through the dining room window.
The easily overlooked quirks aside, the street is quiet, the location is great and the size is good for a family. At $1,699,000, it might give the house on Cottingham across Avenue Road a run for their money.
