There's something genuinely magical about 157 Queens. Stand out front, look down the street at the canopy of cherry blossoms leading to the small parkette and you'll feel it immediately. A home like this should excite you and it will. The oversized front mudroom sets the tone, balancing good looks with real function. The main floor is tastefully done: large, well-connected rooms, hand-scraped hardwood, a river rock fireplace, deep window ledges and a beautifully updated kitchen with an island peninsula that opens to the dining room. Then comes the rear family sunroom. It is bright, welcoming, walking out to a newer deck and the yard you've been looking for. And yes, that shed doubles as a little office and or playroom. Upstairs delivers more of the same. Big rooms, solid storage, original hardwood and an upgraded family bathroom that pulls it all together. The principal bedroom is genuinely oversized with room to grow if you ever wanted to expand for a third bathroom. There is also room to build out over the sunroom. You don't need to, this house is big, but it is worth knowing. The basement offers a separate side entrance, interior weeper system, a guest bedroom, a playroom, a full bath, and additional storage tucked under the sunroom. This place keeps revealing itself. The yard is private, fully fenced, wide, deep and low maintenance. Add the lot size, the price point and a prime Mimico-by-the-lake location--steps to the waterfront, TTC, Mimico Go, parks, library and schools and you have something genuinely special. 157 Queens is the perfect slice of Mimico.
