Farm-House Style Property With Up-Dated Features And Pool

Built in 1922, this home is a traditional, yet beautifully updated, family home. Situated on a double lot, just 20 minutes from downtown Toronto. The grounds feature mature trees, perennial gardens, a pool and a multi-tiered stone patio. The outdoor space also includes a stone fireplace located under a gorgeous open-air cedar pavilion, as well as a modern elevated deck overlooking the pool. Before entering our home, you are greeted by wide, welcoming front steps, a custom door and an inviting over-sized covered front porch and seating area. Upon entering the front door, our home boasts a marble-floored foyer which leads to the living room with a large stone fire-place, sun-room and original wood-beam features. The formal living room continues the traditional theme with high ceilings and exposed oak beams. The large picture windows provide ample natural light to the space. The kitchen is country-inspired, with large windows and a cozy breakfast area. The second floor features a mezzanine which is set up as a study space, as well as a kids bedroom/nursery and two master bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. The larger of the two also has a modern gas fireplace and seating area. The architectural lines of the second floor give the space a lofty feel with three dormers, four skylights and large windows throughout. Both inside and out, our home is the perfect fusion of country and city living. It has been updated with modern elements, but we have maintained original features, such as the four original fleur de lys stained glass windows located throughout the house. Additionally, our residence boasts ample parking, stone entrance walls bordering the driveway and a 1200 square foot detached double garage with carriage-style doors and loft space.
