236 Poplar Plains Road, Toronto C02, ON M4V 2N7
South Hill, Toronto
Hidden entirely behind a mature wall of hedges on one of South Hill's most coveted streets, this private residence on Poplar Plains Road pairs the formal pedigree of Georgian Revival with the romance of a European garden estate, offering a rare combination of scale, seclusion, and Old World character on an oversized 79.65 x 110 ft lot. A gated stone walkway leads to a grand arrival, where a classical pedimented portico framed by columns opens to a gracious foyer and sweeping main hall staircase. Inside, 6,464 square feet of stately living space unfolds with soaring ceilings, solid hardwood floors, leaded glass windows, and original detailing throughout. A formal living room with wood-burning fireplace walks out to a serene covered veranda, while the panelled formal dining room, anchored by its own fireplace, holds a true sense of occasion. At the heart of the home, a chef-calibre kitchen with honed Calacatta counters and framed cabinetry opens to a warm family room. The second floor is anchored by an elegant primary suite with a beautifully appointed ensuite, alongside two additional well-proportioned bedrooms, while the third floor offers two further bedrooms and a private retreat with office, den, and family room warmed by a gas fireplace. The lower level is dedicated to lifestyle, with a home gym and wine cellar. Outside, a covered veranda with terracotta floors overlooks a professionally landscaped garden wrapped entirely in greenery, framed by mature hedges and Japanese maples - a private oasis with the romance of a European country estate and a storybook garden chalet. Moments from Winston Churchill Park, the shops and restaurants of Yonge & St. Clair, and Toronto's most respected public and private schools, this is a setting families hold for generations. Private viewings by appointment. Virtual tour link has additional photos.
