This 5-car driveway can easily hold a boat (for those trips to nearby Lake Ontario).
Besides 3 above-grade bedrooms, the bungalow also has a finished 2-bedroom basement with a separate entrance.
That gives buyers the amazing opportunity to both own and rent out their property—to invest where they live.
And who wouldn’t want to live here?

117 Phillip Ave – Main Floor
Bay windows bathe the foyer and living room in a sea of light.
In terms of size, 117 Phillip Ave is a colossal 1649 sq. ft.
Spread over two levels, the bungalow consists of 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 kitchens, and 2 living and dining areas.
The bungalow’s devotion to luxury is apparent in the crown moulding and bay windows.
But that luxury doesn’t end there.
In fact, the entire bungalow has been renovated—so everything is beautiful and brand new.
For example, this gorgeous dining room boasts laminate floors, white columns and pastel-green walls.
But the dining room’s main highlight is the fireplace.
Residents can use the mantle to proudly display trophies, family photos or décor pieces such as candles.
The dining room also features large windows, deck-access, and a built-in glass-cabinet.
117 Phillip Ave – Kitchen
The fully-renovated kitchen is outfitted with tons of cabinets and brilliantly lit by a pair of windows.
117 Phillip Ave’s kitchen stuns with its sheer diversity of colours and materials.
You’ll find stainless-steel appliances, black granite counters, dark wood cabinets, and a back-splash of earthy brick.
Besides looking great, these materials serve very practical functions.
For example, granite is a highly durable material which resists heat damage, while brick is easy to clean and maintain.
The kitchen is located close to the dining room and also flaunts thick laminate floors.
The first-floor kitchen includes the following appliances:
- A stainless-steel stove and fridge
- A wall-mounted microwave and range hood
- An integrated dishwasher
117 Phillip Ave – Bedrooms and Washroom
The bungalow boasts 3 bedrooms on the main floor and 2 in the basement.

This second bedroom is perfect for kids.
Like the master bedroom, it’s decked out in laminate floors and a large closet with mirror doors.
The third and final bedroom has the advantage of bigger windows which directly face the street.
As a result, it gets abundant sunlight (enough to grow large plants) and furnishes better views.
Like the other two bedrooms, this one also has laminate floors and a large closet.
The main floor is home to one of the bungalow’s 2 bathrooms.
This exquisite 4-piece bath has been physically and aesthetically overhauled.
It consists of practical elements such as a shower, sink, medicine cabinet and soaker tub, as well as nice visual touches like frosted windows and an array of tile sizes.

The basement living room has enough space for several large pieces of furniture and equipment.
117 Phillip Ave’s basement contains 2 bedrooms, a kitchen, bath, living and dining area, and a laundry room.
Besides its immense size, there’s a lot to love about this basement—like the fact that it’s finished.
Residents can look forward to dusky laminate floors, creamy gray walls, and strong lighting.
It also has a lovely, full-sized kitchen with granite counters, a tiled back-splash and dark-complexioned cabinets.
Just because it’s in the basement doesn’t mean it can’t be beautiful.
The kitchen also makes the most of its space.
For example, it uses wall-mounted cabinets for extra storage capacity and corner-bending counters.
Appliances include a stove, fridge, microwave and rangehood.
This elegant laundry room has a front loading washer and dryer by Whirlpool.
The basement bedrooms are just as spacious as their above-grade counterparts.
Like the master bedroom, this one boasts laminate floors, a large closet with mirror doors, and a window.
117 Phillip Ave may have too bedrooms for some families, so they can always put them to other uses.

It’s well-lit, quiet and out of the way, making it the ideal place to get some work done.
Other creative uses include using it as a storage room, games room, art studio or children’s play area.
Of course, you can also rent out the basement and turn your home into an investment!
117 Phillip Ave – Backyard
This deck isn’t just spacious—it’s enormous.
There’s enough room for 15-20 people, along with several pieces of patio furniture and a large grill.
Imagine summer barbecues or birthday celebrations with family, friends and neighbours all gathered together.
Beyond the deck is the backyard, which is more like a parkette.
From playing tag to splashing around in a kiddie pool—this big backyard is a dream come true for kids.
Adults can also plant a garden or enjoy cold drinks under one of several shady trees.
117 Phillip Ave’s backyard can fit a giant trampoline and still have room left over!
