Welcome to this...

“Lytton Park/John Ross Robertson” solid brick family home!

This Glencairn Avenue location is so fantastic due to its proximity to everything your family will ever need. Some of Toronto’s best ranked schools within a 5 minute walk. Parks, libraries, shopping, trendy coffee shops and restaurants, movie theatres and community skating/hockey rinks. If you need to get around by public transit, walk 2 minutes to Yonge Street and hop on the bus or walk to Yonge/Lawrence/Eglinton subway station.

This home has been lovingly maintained by the current owners for approximately 30 years, who have thoroughly enjoyed its practical layout and abundance of natural sunlight. The traditional living and dining rooms feature rich/dark hardwood flooring, French doors, warm and inviting brick and a woodburning fireplace. The updated kitchen boasts a breakfast bar and sitting area with bay window, overlooking the lush mature garden. The upstairs is made up of 4 good-sized bedrooms and an updated 4pc bathroom. The basement was dug down and features an awesome recreation/family room along with a new 3pc bathroom with large shower area and heated floors.

TIPS TO TAKE YOUR

Next level TO THE

10

tepping into a backyard oasis is the best way to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Whether you are creating a space for the whole family or a private retreat, it takes planning and people to turn your dream into a reality. Design expert Kimberley Seldon partnered with the Electrical Safety Authority to share tips and hidden electrical considerations for three outdoor design ideas.

O P E N - AI R LIVI N G Canadians want to be outdoors to soak up the warm weather all season. To achieve this, Seldon recommends adding comfortable seating in an outdoor lounge area. A cabana with a breezy new ceiling fan will give your space a resort feel - just remember the fan will require special installation. A licensed electrical contractor is required to ensure the correct junction box is used so it doesn't wobble or fall. >>>

R EL A X

BY TH E WATE R Adding a calming koi pond or a revitalizing infinity pool will turn your yard into a haven. When picking the location for your water feature, it's important to factor in where overhead wires are located. There are specific distances that your pool must be from overhead powerlines, which can be as much as 7.5 metres horizontally and vertically to prevent shock caused by contact with tools such as skimmers.

LIG HT U P TH E GAR D EN Good lighting is key to adding ambiance into any space. As you would for your indoor lighting, develop a layered plan to achieve your desired look.

Incorporate down lighting to emphasize the façade, landscape lighting in the garden to highlight a row of cedars, pathway lights for safety, and decorative lighting for added impact. Be sure that all outdoor electrical is rated for exterior use, and ensure all outdoor outlets are protected with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). If the receptacle is exposed to the elements, it will need an “extra duty” cover plate.
