1622 Burns Street

Original Remarks

A rare opportunity in Whitby offering scale, privacy and future potential. Set on a 0.61 Acre lot, with 2 PIN numbers, with a frontage of 109 ft, 277 ft at its deepest depth, and 145 ft across the rear of this L-Shaped property. Both the depth and width are almost never found in this neighbourhood. The existing full brick two-storey home spans close to 5,000 sq ft above grade with a triple car garage, circular driveway and an expansive backyard that feels more like a private park than a subdivision lot. Mature trees line the perimeter, creating natural separation while preserving a wide open lawn area ideal for recreation or future planning. Inside, the home offers a grand curved staircase, oversized principal rooms, six bedrooms, six bathrooms and the finished basement offers additional space, a bar and another fireplace - included in As Is condition. The scale is there. The structure is there. The canvas is ready for transformation. For buyers thinking bigger, the lot configuration opens the door to multiple possibilities, subject to due diligence and municipal approvals. Explore the potential for a severance along the angled frontage. Consider a detached garden suite or private nanny residence tucked toward the rear. Reimagine the existing footprint into a luxury estate with resort style grounds. Or hold and improve, leveraging the rarity of over a half acre in a mature pocket of Whitby. Properties with this kind of land, frontage and flexibility do not come up often. Whether you are a builder, investor or end user with vision, this is a chance to create something exceptional. Ideally located close to the 401/412, GO Train, Schools, Durham College, shopping, dining, activity centre, lake Ontario and place of worship.
