Main Floor

The elegance of this home begins upon entering from the newly-built front porch through the original, heavy glass vestibule door into the formal parlour with its wood panelling, original fireplace mantle and wide, restored stairs. Original pocket doors lead into the grand living room with its beautiful stained glass windows and soaring ceiling. Beyond another pocket door is a large, grand dining room with its original built-in cabinets and ceiling beams. The efficiently designed, modern kitchen features granite counters, cabinets that go to the ceiling, high-end stainless appliances including a gas stove, two ovens and a handy pot filler. Choose to eat at the breakfast bar or kitchen table overlooking the back yard oasis. Direct access to the deck with gas outlet makes BBQ’ing easy. Beyond is an enormous family room with lux full bathroom for easily accommodating guests in their own private suite, or for washing up after coming in from the garden and access to the attached garage. A custom 5-panel glass door spans the length of the wall and when open, merges the indoor and outdoor space into one glorious room! Heated floors and a gas fireplace surrounded by built-ins offer a lovely focal point to this special space.

Second Floor

Directly across from the graceful staircase is a beautiful large room with restored wainscotting, another fireplace and oak french doors that lead to a sunny 4-season sitting room. This floor features three other bedrooms, each with generous closet space plus a fully renovated main bathroom with separate soaker tub, rain and handheld fixtures in the shower and marble tiles. A second sunroom provides access via french doors to a lovely second-level deck with privacy and access to a roof garden area.

Third Floor

Quality and light continue throughout the top floor. A full size laundry room with custom cabinetry that hides the high-end appliances, granite counter and a sink is spacious enough to incorporate another home office, studio or workshop. Extra storage is available in the attic via a lightweight, drop-down ladder. The master bedroom and attached den feature custom wainscotting, a lovely window seat and cosy gas fireplace.  A hidden jib door leads into a fully custom walk-in closet with natural light, custom Laurysen cabinetry, Walnut drawer cabinet and granite counter. Then there is the award-winning, luxurious master ensuite! Featuring radiant floor heating and heated towel bar, a 2-person stand-alone soaker tub, walk-in, curb-less shower with rain and hand-held fixtures, custom walnut vanity with two sinks, and plenty of added storage. This master suite is a true escape!
