10 Scarboro Avenue - Stunningly Beautiful Highland Creek Home For Sale

'A Majestic, Tastefully Remodelled Corner-Lot Home in Scarborough's Highland Creek Community.' Set prominently on an elevated corner lot, this striking residence enjoys enhanced privacy, impressive stature, and a commanding architectural presence. Situated on a prominent corner, elevated above the street on a premium 45.56 × 107.93 ft corner lot, 10 Scarboro Avenue exudes a majestic presence of grandeur from the moment you arrive. Tall, manicured privacy trees line the east side of the property add a sense of seclusion and polish. Built in 1985 by Presidential Homes as "The Park 9" model, this tastefully remodelled home offers 2,229 sq ft above grade, four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a double private driveway, and an attached two-car garage with direct entry to the basement. A grand foyer sets the tone, anchored by a sweeping curved maple staircase with brushed nickel spindles and a sculpted handrail. To the left is a formal living room and dining room, finished in a calming, neutral palette. A statement chandelier and French doors make it ideal for hosting. To the right is the open-concept family room, kitchen and breakfast area, where the whole household naturally gathers. Crown moulding runs throughout, and recessed and sculptural lighting add luxury in the entryway, kitchen, formal dining room and bedrooms. The maple hardwood flooring complete with new subfloor (2014) flow continuously through the home. Upgraded entry and leaded rear glass doors flood the space with natural light. Two sliding walkouts from the family room and kitchen area look out onto a private, fully fenced backyard framed by mature, hedge-lined privacy. It is ideal for children, pets and entertaining, and an existing awning shades the poured-in-place low maintenance concrete patio. The awning works but is due for replacement. The main-floor wood-burning fireplace has not been used and could be recommissioned by the new owner. It is not WETT certified and has internal trunking and side storage; the basement level has a fireplace rough-in. The remodelled Muti Kitchens galley kitchen (2014) is a showpiece. It has extensive high-gloss custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a modern tile backsplash, a curved-glass range hood and under-cabinet LED lighting. Built-in appliances are tucked away around the corner for a cleaner, chic look, and the built-in microwave and oven sit immediately across from the formal dining area, which makes it perfect for entertaining. An expansive island doubles as a breakfast bar, with three-sided seating, dual-sided storage and a power outlet. Storage is exceptional, with Blum soft-closing fittings in pull-out drawers, top-hinged upper cabinets, vertical storage, interior drawers, and a deep built-in pantry with smooth-glide drawers. Energy Star stainless steel appliances include an induction stovetop, induction oven and built-in microwave. A double-sized single-basin undermount sink completes the space. Upstairs, the primary retreat features a walk-in closet with a custom-tailored Ikea PAX system and minimalist modular storage. The custom ensuite is a spa-like escape, with a freestanding soaker tub, a frameless glass shower stall with a walk-in design, a floating double-sink vanity, stone-look tile and heated floors. Bathrooms are tastefully finished with mostly Riobel and Rubinet fixtures with solid brass contruction and temperature-compensating valves. The third bedroom has a power outlet in the closet. The fourth bedroom has been opened to the home's main footprint and is currently staged as a sun-drenched home office. It also works well as a media room. The original window and closet have been retained. Add a barn door for privacy, or reinstate the original wall to restore a fully enclosed bedroom. The mechanical and structural updates are well documented, which gives peace of mind. Details and dates are listed below, including a 2011 architectural shingle roof, a 2011 Goodman central A/C, a 2015 attic insulation upgrade and high-efficiency LoE180 windows in 2024, 2024 electric garage door opener, and 2025 double garage door. Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors were installed on all floors in 2026. The massive unfinished basement is prepped for future development. It already has insulation, a vapour barrier, electrical wiring, a central vacuum system, and rough-ins for a bathroom and kitchen. A separate side entrance and an internal stairwell make it primed for conversion into a guest suite, in-law or nanny quarters, or as an expansive recreation room. A legal suite may also be possible. A dedicated, unfinished wine cellar space is ready to become a custom cold-storage or a collector's vault. The owned hot water tank means no monthly rental fees. It has a smaller footprint, which leaves room for a future owner to upgrade capacity. Info: 647 388 0097
