22 Beechwood Crescent

About This Property

A rare opportunity to own a piece of East York's living history. Once the Coach House for 20 Beechwood Crescent, the oldest privately owned residence in East York, this distinctive property at 22 Beechwood Crescent now stands as its own remarkable home. Rooted in East York's rich past it carries the legacy of George Taylor, founder of the Don Valley Brickworks (now Evergreen Brickworks), blending heritage and modern comfort in a truly one-of-a-kind setting. Today, that heritage lives on through warm details and timeless craftsmanship. Reminiscent of an English country cottage, this home features original pine floors, exposed wood beams, and a storybook charm that blends the history with modern comfort. The former double garage has been artfully transformed into a spacious and inviting living room. The double-sided gas fireplace connects the living and dining rooms, adding a cozy glow to both spaces. Just off the kitchen is an English garden-inspired four-season sunroom with a walkout to a picturesque rear garden, where you can unwind amidst year-round ravine views. Complete with its own heating and cooling system and 2-piece washroom, this quaint room provides a front-row seat to nature's changing seasons. Upstairs, there is a large primary bedroom, full washroom, laundry and a second bedroom which provides space for guests, family, or even a home office. For those seeking to expand, a Building Potential Report is available outlining a possible second-floor extension above the living room - offering the opportunity to create additional bedrooms while maintaining the home's historical character. The best of both worlds being tucked away on a quiet crescent while also just steps to all that the city has to offer: TTC, upcoming new subway line where a stop is planned at Pape and Cosburn and quick access to the Don Valley Parkway. Perfect for getting downtown or out of town. Fall in love with the charm and history of this magical property!
