Has The Toronto Bubble Finally, Popped?
4 Dunstable Pl
SOLD
Detached Bungalow | 3 + 2 Bedroom + 3 Washroom
MLS #W12814946
The Details
Designed For Connection.
A quiet Richview court of only 12 homes. Detached. Renovated. 43 x 106 Ft Pie-Shaped Lot. 3 + 2 bedrooms. 3 Full Bathrooms. Parking for 7. That is the headline, my friends. Now here is the story. When you walk in, the 10-foot ceiling height changes your posture. That kinda’ volume gives a home confidence. It is open, but not chaotic. Defined without being boxed in. The kind of layout that can host a full dinner party and yet still feel calm on a Monday morning.
At the home’s heart is a gorgeous kitchen designed to last; featured in House & Home Magazine (and for good reason). Custom cabinetry. Matte black pantry wall. Crisp white perimeter. Brass hardware that does not compete for attention. A proper gas range under a statement hood. Seamless stone counters. A stunning hex tile that adds design without ego. And the island. Solid white oak. Thick. Honest. Seating for three with storage below. It handles coffee, homework, wine, & holidays without even flinching.
Wide-plank engineered hardwood runs consistently throughout, tying the spaces together. Solid core doors. Solid white oak closet doors. Details that do not scream for attention, but quietly elevate the everyday. Two wood-burning fireplaces ground the home in cozy & comforting warmth. The dining area effortlessly takes a full table and chandelier without squeezing elbows, and sightlines move cleanly from kitchen to dining to living. It’s designed for connection. It works when you are hosting. It works when you are not.
The primary suite earns its keep with an ensuite that cuts no corners. Heated floors. Marble-wrapped double vanity. Glass shower enclosure. Two sinks. No negotiations. Three bedrooms on the main level. Two more below. Three full bathrooms, including two on the ground floor. The layout flexes easily for kids, guests, dedicated work, or extended family. Nothing is forced.
And the lower level does not read like a basement. It’s an extension of the home. Full ceiling height. Recessed lighting throughout. A proper family room with its own fireplace, storage and full bathroom. The office and laundry renovation adds enviable (& darn good-looking) utility, not filler. Every square foot has a role. Nothing is an afterthought.
A meaningful investment was made in the backyard, front patio, and landscaping. A raised deck built for conversation. A fire table that stretches the season. Clean stone hardscaping that defines dining and lounging without fencing you in. A real lawn. Not decorative. Usable. And a street presence that feels considered, with the spring magnolia absolutely stealing the show.
Life here is efficient. Highways are minutes away. Parks get used. Schools are strong. Pearson and the UP Express simplify travel. The neighbourhood continues to attract young families, with meaningful infrastructure already underway. It feels like a pocket that is moving forward, not standing still.
This is the kind of residence that makes the next ten years easy.
Your home should tell a story of who you are and be a collection of what you love.

Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac in Richview, 4 Dunstable Place sits in one of Etobicoke’s most practical and quietly evolving neighbourhoods. This is the kind of pocket where families plant roots, neighbours know each other by name, and kids ride their bikes until the sun goes down. You know, where daily life runs smoothly (most-of-the-time).
If accessibility is power, this address has it. You are a 3-minute walk to The Westway bus at Wincott, which connects directly to Islington Station, Weston UP/Go Station and beyond. Islington Avenue routes are within an 8-minute walk and offer frequent service in both directions. For commuters, Hwy 401 and Hwy 427 are both within 10 minutes, making cross-city travel as seamless as possible. Weston UP Station is a quick 6-minute drive from Union Station, offering door-to-door access. And Toronto Pearson International Airport is approximately ten minutes by car, ideal for frequent flyers or international families.
Kingsview Village overdelivers on greenery. Within minutes, you have access to Westway Park with baseball diamonds, tennis courts, and winter skating. Wincott Park offers walking trails, a pond, and playground space. Silver Creek Park adds an outdoor gym component. And the Humber River Trail provides an expansive natural corridor for cycling, jogging, or long Sunday walks. Golfers can enjoy Weston Golf & Country Club nearby, while sporty families have the CWENCH Centre at Canlan Sports.
Families who prioritize Catholic education will find this address particularly compelling. St. Eugene Catholic School is nearby and ranks close to an 8 on the Fraser Institute, offering both English & French Immersion streams. Bussing is available, adding another layer of convenience for busy households. Looking ahead, the TCDSB is set to open a brand new Catholic secondary school on the former Scarlett Heights property, approximately a 15-minute walk away. For families thinking long term, that kind of infrastructure investment matters. And multiple daycare centres are within one kilometre, including Gold Circle Early Childhood Day Care Centre, just steps away.
Kingsview Village does not chase attention. It earns loyalty. Daily life here is frictionless. The essentials are woven into the day-to-day of the neighbourhood, from grocery runs and pharmacy stops to banking and services, all within minutes. When you want something larger in scale, Yorkdale Shopping Centre is easy to reach for high-end retail, restaurants, or family nights at the movies.
The food scene is quietly confident. Long-standing European bakeries and neighbourhood cafés give mornings character, while a mix of polished-casual restaurants and local pubs makes dinner feel easy. It is about reliability, familiarity, and knowing exactly where you will go on a Tuesday night. This is a neighbourhood built around real life. School drop-offs. Park loops. Coffee in hand. Groceries on the way home. Everything you need, nothing you do not. All without downtown congestion (sigh, in relief).
The long view matters. Richview sits in a strategic middle ground. Not priced like central Toronto. Not disconnected like the outer ‘burbs. Neighbourhoods with transit access, proximity to highways, airport adjacency, and meaningful green space have historically benefited from steady reinvestment. As affordability continues to reshape Toronto, well-connected Etobicoke enclaves like this attract move-up buyers and multi-generational families seeking space without compromise.
This is not hype. It is positioning. A practical, future-aligned decision for families who value stability, connectivity, & room to grow.
