Top Ten Reasons You Will Love This Home
Located on a quiet family friendly court with park access. 853 Ninth Street is located on a cul de sac with only 12 other houses, and many are home to young families. The residents on this court enjoy access to Cawthra Park walking trails from the end of the street. Through the walking trails you can connect to Cawthra Road, Carmen Corbasson Community Centre, Cawthra Park Secondary School, and St Paul Secondary School.
A great open concept layout. This mid century charmer offers an open concept bright white kitchen with granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a wine fridge, and a large kitchen island with breakfast bar seating and built in storage. The kitchen is open to the family room which is spacious enough to fit a large sectional sofa. There are three generous size bedrooms, including a master bedroom with a view of the backyard. There are two full bathrooms so guests can have their own washroom to use, which is always a perk.
Finished basement with apartment potential. You will love the big windows and natural light in the basement. The basement currently offers a big rec room with a gas fireplace, home office nook, additional full bathroom, and a kitchenette space. The basement could be converted to a basement apartment or inlaw suite thanks to the separate entrance to the basement. The basement offers a large laundry room with new washer and dryer (2018), a utility room, and cold storage room for lots of storage options.
No shortage of parking. Your private driveway can accommodate at least four cars and the street has lots of room to park as well, so your guests will never struggle to find parking when they come to visit.
Totally move in ready. This home has been thoughtfully updated and well cared for. If you are looking for a home that doesn’t require renovations, has been well maintained, and would be a soft place to land, you will be proud to call 853 Ninth Street home.
Access to the waterfront. One of the perks of living in Lakeview is that you have quick access to the waterfront. Take a stroll or a ten minute bike ride straight south, and you will have your pick of greenspace and trails to enjoy along the shore of Lake Ontario - Lakefront Promenade Park, AE Crookes Park, RK McMillan Park, and connections to the Waterfront Trail.
Lovely Lakeview. For years, Lakeview has been one of Mississauga’s best kept secrets - spacious lots, access to the Lake and greenspace, and the ease of getting around east Mississauga and west Toronto. Now development in the neighbourhood plans to build on these features and give the area an exciting expansion. Plans are in the works to develop a large parcel of land by the waterfront into “Lakeview Village” which will bring new housing, new retail, and new parkland. Most importantly, the plan is to create more greenspace that connects neighbours in the north part of Lakeview to the waterfront, and also connect greenspace along the waterfront to help continue the waterfront trail. Check out the Master Plan for Lakeview Village here.
Close to Lakeview’s nostalgic ice cream spot. Take a 20 minute stroll south and you will find yourself at Dairy Cream, Lakeview’s legendary ice cream shop where there is almost always a line but always more delicious treats than you can imagine. At Christmas time you will find Dairy Cream turns into a cute Christmas tree lot.
Located between two other awesome neighbourhoods. Lakeview is a great neighbourhood in its own right, but it also benefits from being located between two other awesome neighbourhoods too. Travel slightly east and you are in Long Branch - home of Marie Curtis beach and park, delicious Woody’s Burgers, and some of Toronto’s oldest waterfront estates. Travel slightly west and you will find yourself in Port Credit - a vibrant community of residents who take pride in their busy restaurants and shops, and the beautiful views from the marina.
Easy commuting and access to amenities. If you need to commute to work, you will appreciate the quick access to many of the major highways. Once you leave your driveway, you can be on the QEW in under five minutes, and on the 427 in under 10 minutes. The Long Branch GO Train station and the Port Credit GO Train station are less than 10 minutes away. For shopping, you have no shortage of options at nearby shopping centres like Square One Shopping Centre, Sherway Gardens, and big box shops along Queensway. Golf fans will appreciate that there are three golf courses within a 10 minute drive.
