The Details
This Is West End Done Right.
There’s good, and then there’s extra. 440 Westmoreland is the latter, where scale and flexibility come together in a way that’s increasingly hard to find in the west end.
A full two-storey rear addition changes everything. It’s not just more space, it’s better space. The main floor opens up with 9’ ceilings and a layout that feels considered, not generic. Defined zones, natural flow, and room to actually live.
At the centre, the kitchen delivers. Extended, anchored by a large island, and framed by a full-width west-facing walkout and a rare south-facing casement. The result: constant natural light pouring across the space. Bright, functional, and built to do more than look good. Easy when it’s just you, ready when it’s everyone.
The details, the ones that matter, are already done: powder room, main floor laundry, proper coat storage, built-in coffee bar & wine fridge.
Upstairs keeps its promise. The primary offers up a presence: morning sunshine, space for a king, and thoughtful storage that actually works. At the rear, the second bedroom is oversized, serving as a bonus primary, ideal for families, guests, or evolving needs. And the nursery. The cutest room in the home. Perfect for now, with room for later. The main bath is equally refined: freestanding tub, glass shower, and exceptional illumination from the south-facing window.
The lower level is fully renovated with a separate entrance, offering real optionality. Income, extended family, or a clean and private workspace.
Outside, it’s turnkey. A natural flagstone front porch, clean low-maintenance landscaping, and a backyard designed for use, not just show. With a custom pergola and deck, it’s the kind of setting that makes summer evenings easy.
And the location quietly overdelivers. Walk to Geary Ave, now one of the city’s most interesting creative corridors and minutes to the almost completed Galleria complex, bringing an 8-acre park, community centre, and a major retail hub to your doorstep.
The kind of home that makes the rest of ‘em feel like a maybe.
Your home should tell a story of who you are and be a collection of what you love.

Tucked into one of Toronto’s most character-rich pockets, the Dovercourt–Wallace Emerson–Junction area offers a rare balance of creative energy and neighbourhood warmth. Here you’ll find a community that feels both lived-in and evolving; where longtime residents, young families, and entrepreneurs shape a streetscape that’s as welcoming as it is dynamic.
Life here unfolds along a mix of vibrant local strips and quiet, tree-lined streets. Just a short walk away, Geary Ave is lined with an eclectic mix of cafés, bakeries, independent boutiques, and some of the city’s most talked-about restaurants. Whether it’s a relaxed morning coffee, an impromptu dinner with friends, or a weekend spent browsing local shops, the neighbourhood makes everyday living feel effortlessly engaging.
Connectivity is a major draw. With easy access to a variety of transit lines, commuting downtown or across the city is seamless. Cyclists will appreciate the growing network of bike lanes, while drivers benefit from convenient routes west toward the Junction or east into the downtown core.
Green space is woven into the neighbourhood’s rhythm. Local parks and schoolyards provide space for kids to play and neighbours to gather, while larger nearby destinations offer room to stretch out, unwind, and enjoy the outdoors without leaving the city.
The area also quietly excels when it comes to lifestyle amenities. From boutique fitness studios and yoga spaces to community gyms and wellness-focused businesses, there’s no shortage of options to stay active and balanced. The Junction, just to the west, adds another layer of appeal with its vibrant arts scene, breweries, and cultural events.
Families are drawn to the area for its strong sense of community and access to a range of well-regarded schools, making it a place where people don’t just move in, they put down roots.
It’s a neighbourhood defined by its character and momentum. Where historic homes meet thoughtful renovations, and where every block offers something new to discover. Authentic, connected, and full of personality, Dovercourt–Wallace Emerson–Junction is west-end living at its most compelling.
