Built originally almost 100 years ago, we spent a year completely renovating and restoring the entire house inside and out (completed in 2013).
Our home has 3 large bedrooms. The Master Bedroom has a King size bed with a walk in closet, a "Juliette Balcony" overlooking our garden and ensuite with large shower. The other 2 Bedrooms are very spacious for a home of this age with large windows and custom closets. The main bathroom is finished in marble with a rain shower head and deep soaker tub for a spa like atmosphere.
The main floor has a living room with wood burning fireplace and a unique hidden TV behind the Cuban art above the fireplace (47" HD, LED TV with PVR and Netflix etc). Off of the living room is the main floor powder room. Possibly the best feature of the house would be the kitchen. It is large and very open with everything you could need if you like to cook, including a professional series Viking gas stove. Off the kitchen is a large eating area with a built in banquette and large barn board dining table that seats 10 people. Off the dining area and through garden doors, there is a 4 burner natural gas Weber BBQ on a large deck and reasonably large (for Toronto) backyard with play structure for young children. You may also enjoy spending time on our front porch in the evening with a glass of wine and a book!
The basement has laundry that you are welcome to use. There is also central vac, central air conditioning and wireless internet (plus CAT5 outlets) throughout the house.
There is plenty of street parking in front of the house if you have a car. We also have 2 adult bikes and one child's bike that you are welcome to use while visiting.
