Welcome To
311 Margueretta St
A Thoughtfully Updated Brockton Village Semi with Heart, Flow, and All the Right Details.
There’s a feeling you get as soon as you walk into 311 Margueretta St. It’s not flashy or forced—it’s just…right. The flow makes sense. The light feels good. The vibe is warm, comfortable, and unpretentious—like the kind of home you can really live in.
Set on a deep lot with a two-car garage in Brockton Village, this semi-detached home has that rare balance of original character and thoughtful updates. It isn’t a flip—and you can tell. The front porch invites lingering chats with neighbours. Inside, defined spaces offer just the right amount of openness: a front dining room that leads into the living area, and then through to a renovated kitchen that doesn’t scream “look at me”—but quietly impresses. Exposed brick, custom millwork, high-end appliances, a huge pantry, and a spacious kitchen island that invites everything from pancake breakfasts to wine-fueled catch-ups.
Just off the kitchen, the mudroom is one of those behind-the-scenes features that make daily life so much easier. It’s functional without sacrificing style with room for outdoor gear and easy access to the garage out back. Step outside and you’ll find a raised backyard deck with a gas line for your BBQ, a spot for your herbs or tomatoes, and space to unwind while the kids or dog explore. There’s room to garden out front, or just enjoy the street’s friendly, low-key energy.
Upstairs, the primary bedroom comfortably accommodates a king-size bed and features a brand-new wall-to-wall built-in closet (added in 2024) with smart storage solutions that actually work. Two additional spacious bedrooms (ideal for a growing family, a home office, or both) and an updated family bathroom complete the second floor.
And then there’s the basement. Fully underpinned and waterproofed, with 8-foot ceilings and a separate entrance, it’s a space that adapts to your needs: guest suite, office, future rental. There’s a rough-in for a kitchen, a full 3-piece bathroom, and a bonus room for whatever your family needs now or down the line.
This is also a house where the “unsexy” things have already been taken care of: the furnace, A/C, windows, electrical, new shingles on the sloped roof, front door—all done within the last decade. Everything that you hope would be updated has been updated, with permits where needed. It’s the kind of upgrade history that makes for low-drama homeownership and long-term peace of mind.
The neighbourhood is just as compelling. Morning drop-offs at Brock Public (literally at the end of the street), after-school park hangs at Dufferin Grove, fresh croissants at Home Bakery, a pint at Burdock, dinner at Sugo. You’re walking distance to the Dufferin Mall, Lansdowne and Dufferin subway stations, and the UP Express—perfect for trips downtown or straight to the airport.
Margueretta isn’t just a street. It’s a community—one where people say hi, help each other out, and put down roots. And this house? It’s ready for what’s next. Whether that’s babies or barbecues, WFH days or big family dinners, 311 Margueretta St is a place that can grow with you, support you, and feel like home from day one.
5 Things We Love
- The Expensive Stuff? Already Done. From the basement underpinning and interior waterproofing to the furnace, A/C, windows, sloped roof, and backyard deck—this is one of those rare homes where the unsexy upgrades have been handled (properly and with permits). Translation: fewer surprises, less stress, and more time to just enjoy living here.
- A Basement That Doesn’t Feel Like a Basement. Eight-foot ceilings, a separate entrance, a full 3-piece bath with stacked laundry (full size, of course), a bonus room, and a rough-in for a kitchen—it’s fully underpinned, thoughtfully finished, and ready to flex as a guest suite, workspace, or future income opportunity.
- The Kitchen Is the Heart of It All. Exposed brick, custom millwork, a large centre island with breakfast bar, a proper pantry, and stainless steel appliances—it’s the kind of kitchen that quietly anchors the home without trying too hard.
- A Grown-Up Primary Bedroom (Finally). Room for a king-size bed? Check. Natural light? Absolutely. A full wall of custom built-ins with smart storage solutions added in 2024? Yes, and there is a bonus closet just in case someone’s shoe collection continues to grow.
- Porch Chats, Backyard BBQs, and Room to Grow. A charming front porch, a raised back deck with a gas line for your grill, space to garden both front and back, and a two-car garage to tie it all together—it’s outdoor space that actually fits your lifestyle.

About Brockton Village
The Kind of Neighbourhood That Feels Like Home
Life on Margueretta St feels like the best version of Toronto living—walkable, connected, and full of low-key gems you’ll wonder how you ever lived without. Morning coffee is a quick stroll to Home (don’t skip the baked goods), and dinner out could mean pizza and wine at Sugo or a pint at Burdock before heading home. Grocery runs are easy with multiple options nearby—including the Dufferin Mall when you need a one-stop shop—and when you’re ready to leave the neighbourhood, both Lansdowne and Dufferin stations are within walking distance. The UP Express is also close, getting you downtown in minutes or straight to Pearson when it’s time for a getaway.
Weekends might include park hangs at Dufferin Grove, a visit to the farmers’ market, or just letting the kids run free in one of the many nearby green spaces. Families will appreciate the short walk to excellent schools—Brock Public is literally down the street, and the brand new Bloor Collegiate is just around the corner. But what really makes this part of the West End special is the sense of community. People say hi. Kids play out front. It’s the kind of street where you’ll get to know your neighbours—and be glad you did.
