Welcome To
689 Dupont St
Real Space, Real Flexibility, Real Toronto Living
It’s rare to find a house that makes life easier from day one and still leaves room for you to make it your own. Set on a deep 135-foot lot with a surprisingly private backyard, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom semi offers flexibility, functionality, and walkability—all in one smart package.
Step into a large entry hallway that gives you a proper moment to arrive—shoes off, bags down, and a couple deep breaths as the dog wiggles an excited doggy “hello!”. The main floor layout is thoughtful and traditional, with a separate living room and dining room that lets you keep quiet nights and dinner parties in their own lanes. Whether you’re hosting friends or just hanging out with a movie and a glass of wine, the flow just works.
The eat-in kitchen is full of practical perks: plenty of storage, stainless steel appliances, and a window that overlooks the backyard so you can keep an eye on the kids or enjoy the view while making your morning coffee. It’s a space that works now and has obvious potential if you’re itching to design your dream kitchen someday.
There’s also laundry on the main floor (no more dragging baskets to the basement) and a walk-out to the back garden. Upstairs, the three bedrooms are light-filled and well-proportioned, with room for kids, a home office, or both. Downstairs, the finished basement includes a second kitchen, a full bathroom, a separate laundry, and a walk-out. It’s a flexible space that works for a tenant to help offset the mortgage, overnight guests, or a teen who wants their own space.
The backyard space offers a mix of green space and patio made for summer dinners, relaxed mornings watching the kids burn off some energy outside, or letting the dog out without having to leash up and head out. The detached garage at the back adds real value: secure parking for two, extra storage for bikes or strollers, and peace of mind when winter hits. The backyard feels tucked away from it all—with the kind of quiet that city buyers don’t expect but definitely appreciate.
Living here means walking to Farm Boy, Loblaws, LCBO, and Christie Station in under 15 minutes. Plus, some of the city’s best coffee and most exciting food are nearby: Actinolite, General Public, Annabelle Pasta Bar, Parallel, and Famiglia Baldassarre. Whether you’re grabbing groceries, heading downtown, or meeting friends for dinner, everything you need is close, and when you want to escape or need the cargo space, your car’s already waiting in the garage.
This is a home you can live in and immediately enjoy comfortably, and improve over time when you, your budget, and your “Our DREAM Home” Pinterest board are ready. A place that works for real life and grows with you.

- Room to Live, Work, and Grow: With generously sized bedrooms and a separate living and dining room, there’s plenty of space to stretch out—whether you’re working from home, hosting friends, or growing your family.

About Dovercourt Village
Dovercourt Village isn’t trying to be the next hot spot, it just is one. Understated but full of personality, this neighbourhood strikes that rare balance between community charm and city convenience. And 689 Dupont St puts you right in the middle of it all.
In the mood to grab a cortado and wander? You’ve got Contra, Creeds, and Rooms within a few blocks. Plus, Rooms turns into a bar at night when you’re ready to trade coffee for cocktails. Hungry? You’ll have a more challenging time choosing where to eat than what to eat, with Actinolite, Fat Pasha, Parallel, Famiglia Baldassarre, Annabelle Pasta Bar and General Public all a short walk away. This isn’t just dinner. It’s a night out without needing an Uber.
Need to stock the fridge (or the bar)? You’re surrounded by grocery options that make sense for everyday life: Farm Boy, Loblaws, Fiesta Farms, LCBO, and even Blood Brothers Brewing for when you want your Friday night six-pack to feel a little special.
Christie Pits Park is just down the block for dog walks, kid energy burn-offs or summer movie nights, and you’re just 550 metres from Essex Jr & Sr Public School (one of the reasons this pocket is a magnet for young families). It’s the kind of neighbourhood where parents know each other’s names, sidewalks fill with strollers and scooters after school, and life feels a little easier.
Transit? Covered. You’ve got a bus stop practically at your door, and Christie Station is a quick walk or an even quicker drive. And with the Geary strip around the corner, you’re never far from some of the city’s most unique restaurants, music, and late-night hangs.
In short: 689 Dupont St puts you in a real neighbourhood—with soul, convenience, and a whole lot of good coffee.
