Inspired by West Coast design, the home introduces a rare sense of openness, natural light, and architectural flair to one of Toronto's most prestigious neighbourhoods.

Inside, approximately 6,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space unfolds across multiple levels. A substantial three storey addition enhances the home while preserving its charm. The main floor presents elegant principal rooms including a gracious living room, formal dining room, and a refined library with wood burning fireplace. A spacious family room with floor to ceiling windows overlooks the pool and gardens, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen is designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining, complete with breakfast area, servery, and a mudroom with convenient side entrance. The second floor features four well proportioned bedrooms along with a sun filled solarium spanning the rear of the home. The entire third level is dedicated to a private primary retreat with sitting room, balcony walkout, skylights, dressing area, and a luxurious six piece ensuite. The lower level offers a recreation room with walkout to the pool, sauna, exercise room, washroom, and abundant storage. A heated garage accommodates up to six vehicles with two lifts, complemented by a heated driveway and front steps. Located on one of Forest Hill's most coveted streets, moments to The Village and renowned schools including UCC, BSS, and South Prep, this is a home defined by character, design, and exceptional lifestyle.
