This three-storey townhouse in the heart of midtown Toronto has been fully customized by the homeowner and features two outdoor living spaces.
It’s part of a small, rowhouse-style complex, adjacent to a highrise, built in 2015 by Tridel. It’s steps from the shops, businesses and amenities that line both Yonge Street and Eglinton Avenue.
With over 2,000 sq. ft. of living space, four bedrooms and three full ensuites, this home also has access to the highrise’s amenities that create a home with the benefits of a condo lifestyle alongside the space and assets of a house.
“I purchased my townhouse pre-construction and spent the next four years researching and designing every last detail. It has been wonderful living in a custom-designed home with my own private patio, while still having access to luxurious amenities, such as a state-of-the-art gym, yoga studio, steam room, sauna and rooftop lap pool,” said homeowner Gabrielle Dann, who has a background in interior design.
“The complex is tucked away between two quiet side streets, facing an internal courtyard and backing on to a treed lawn. It has the feeling of a little insulated community within the heart of a big city,” Dann said.
“What sold me on the home was the 15-foot ceilings, floorto-ceiling windows, and the third-floor skylight. Some of the custom designs I chose were five-inch wide, wire-brushed white oak flooring and custom white Shaker-style millwork throughout,” she added.
The home is also walking distance to the subway, parks, schools and to big box shopping. It is close to Sunnybrook Hospital and has easy access to Hwy. 401 and the Don Valley Pkwy.
“This large amount of space on three above-grade levels in an almost new home, with parking included, is rare to find in this category of home and price point,” listing agent Andrew Ipekian said.
Facing a courtyard, with a brick and stucco exterior, this modern townhouse has a solid wood front door opening to a foyer.
It leads to the living room that includes a soaring floor-to-ceiling window, hardwood flooring and pot lights.
The open-concept dining room has pot lights and hardwood flooring.
Adjoining the dining room is the kitchen with a 13-foot-plus centre island with an integrated basin sink, quartzite stone counters, a quartzite stone slab backsplash, hardwood floor, pot lights, and built-in high-end stainless steel appliances — including a wine cooler and a sixburner gas stove.
The family room is equipped with a hardwood floor, a gas fireplace, pot lights, and a sliding glass-door, flanked with floor-to-ceiling windows, that opens to a terrace.
Also, on this level is a twopiece bathroom, and a walk-in storage area with a coat closet.
Oak stairs with a glass rail lead to the second level which is fully devoted to the primary bedroom suite. It features a hardwood floor, floor-to-ceiling window, double entry doors, four double closets and a spacious five-piece ensuite with oversized soaker tub and shower stall.
The third floor has a hall skylight and two secondary bedrooms on either end, with an open-concept den and a laundry room in between. The bedrooms have hardwood floors, walk-in closets, four-piece ensuites and large windows. One has a balcony walkout.
The private back patio has a concrete floor, two brick walls and wood fencing, with ample room for outdoor dining or lounging.
