This exceptional 3-storey detached residence in prime Riverdale has been thoughtfully transformed with a deep appreciation for its century-old charm and the way a modern family lives. This is more than a beautiful renovation - it's a home reimagined with genuine love for what it already was, resulting in something truly one-of-a-kind. Offering 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, the home features a 2nd-floor primary suite with walk-in closet, spectacular ensuite and sunny second-floor deck. Also on the 2nd floor are 2 additional bedrooms, a washroom and dedicated laundry room. Two generous 3rd-floor bedrooms share a Jack'n'Jill bathroom, while custom built-ins throughout add function and character.The main floor is made for family life and entertaining, centred around a stunning custom kitchen, banquette area, dining space and inviting family room overlooking the large backyard. The underpinned basement adds a spacious rec room with good natural light and heated floors.Outside, the private and fully landscaped yard offers mature plantings, a generous entertaining deck and custom fire pit area. And the location is every bit as special - Riverdale is loved for its exceptional schools, parks, local shops, amenities and TTC access, but what truly sets it apart is its genuine sense of community - a neighbourhood where people know their neighbours and families put down roots. 25 Bowden is a home created with passion and respect for its history, in a neighbourhood that's equally remarkable. Homes like this simply don't come along often.
