Bridle Path may not be worth the trek as most estates are fenced off and set back from the street. Rosedale may be a better alternative on foot as it's much closer to DT. The architecture is much nicer too (unless you're looking for lavish and audacious!).
The Beaches and High Park are are great options for a future visit. Not central but easy to get to.
The Beaches has a laid back vibe - feels quite different from the other neighbourhoods. And at the eastern end of the hood along the beach is the RC Harris building - an art deco beauty.
High Park itself has a lot to offer. Bloor along the park is mostly residential but a little further west is Bloor West Village which is a pretty good strip. Roncesvalles is fun and nearby as well - and since you like to walk, the Junction north of the park has a unique turn-of-the-century railroad town vibe.
