Transcript

I have walked by this house my entire life and always been so curious what it's like inside. And today is my lucky day. This Parisian inspired heritage property really stands out from the Victorian houses in the area. As soon as you step in, you notice the 10 foot height beamed ceilings, beautiful terracotta floors, and wood burning fireplace. The back of the house is perfectly set up with an updated kitchen overlooking the dining space, and a gorgeous La Cornue range with an arched stained glass window overlooking the back patio which would be perfect for summer parties and I love all the arches you'll find in this house house. Like these three windows at the front of the house in the 2nd Floor living room, on a floor that has three additional bedrooms best up as a nursery, a guest bedroom, and a kids room, as well as a beautiful bathroom that was renovated fully in 2023. And while it doesn't look like it from the front, there is a 3rd Floor to this house where you will find the primary better with another wood burning fireplace and five piece ensuite with two shower heads, a back tier, and 11 foot vaulted ceilings. The Final Floor of this house is the seven foot height ceiling basement with a TV watching area, a laundry area towards the bad, with some great light from above grade windows, and one of the nicer basement bathrooms I've ever seen with a sauna. Okay, I love this house.
