30 Harwood Rd
Toronto, ON, M4S 2P3
Finding a family home in Midtown that doesn’t come with a long list of compromises isn’t easy. Finding one on a quiet, tree-lined street like Harwood Road is even harder. Tucked onto one of Davisville Village’s less-travelled streets, where the road dead-ends and kids still ride bikes and scooters out front, 30 Harwood offers the kind of setting that makes people want to stay. Add a welcoming front porch, great neighbours and an easy walk to schools, parks, shops and the subway, and it’s easy to understand why the current owners chose this street in the first place.
Much of the hard work inside has already been done too. Thoughtfully updated for family living, the home combines warm, comfortable spaces with a fully renovated lower level, three good-sized bedrooms, two full bathrooms upstairs, a sunny backyard and a new deck.
The main floor feels bright and inviting, with oak floors, custom built-ins, a gas fireplace and generous living and dining areas. The kitchen is well equipped with granite counters, premium appliances, a breakfast bar, pantry and built-in desk nook, plus a walkout to the rear deck and backyard.
Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a spacious primary with a walk-in closet and custom built-in storage. Both full bathrooms have been completely rebuilt, with the primary ensuite also featuring heated floors.
The basement has been fully renovated to create genuinely useful living space, with a large recreation room, built-in workstations, excellent storage and a newly added powder room. There’s also a separate dug-down workout room with its own electric fireplace.
Out back, a new wood deck provides plenty of space for outdoor dining and entertaining, with clever storage built underneath. It steps down to a private, fully fenced yard with a garden shed and gas line ready for a fire table.
Then there’s the lifestyle outside the front door. Harwood is only 2 blocks long, and its dead-end helps keep traffic to a minimum, while mature trees give the street an established, leafy feel and help shade the front of the home through the summer. The sellers describe summer evenings spent on the covered front porch, often turning into impromptu conversations with neighbours while children play along the street. It’s a little bit of small-town life in the middle of Toronto.
Daily life is remarkably walkable. June Rowlands Park and Hodgson skating rink are about five minutes away, Maurice Cody is an easy walk, and Mount Pleasant and Bayview put groceries, restaurants, cafés and everyday services close at hand. Davisville Station is less than a 15-minute walk, making the trip downtown practical without having to rely on the car.
Legal front-pad parking adds another increasingly rare Midtown convenience.
30 Harwood Rd is the kind of Davisville home that gets both parts right: a house that’s ready for the next family, and a street they may not want to leave.
