Steps from Yorkville, on one of the Annexs most cherished tree-lined streets, this nearly 5,000 sqft detached Victorian residence by Richard Wengle masterfully balances timeless elegance with modern ease. Behind its preserved façade lies a complete architectural rebuild, where enduring craftsmanship and refined design are revealed at every turn. The family room makes a dramatic impression with soaring 118 vaulted ceiling, coffered detailing, and clerestory windows that bathe the space in natural light. A marble-clad fireplace and custom cabinetry ground the room, while French doors open onto a private garden terrace an inviting extension of the living space, perfect for entertaining or quiet evenings. The chefs kitchen is a showcase of bespoke cabinetry and Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Miele appliances, centred around a generous island designed for both cooking and gathering. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a sanctuary of comfort with a marble ensuite featuring heated floors, dual walk-in dressing rooms, and a fireplace. The second bedroom includes its own balcony walk-out, while the third floor provides a light-filled retreat with Juliette balcony, walk-in closet, and full bath ideal for family, guests, or a home office. The lower level is designed for wellness and recreation, complete with a gym, sauna, steam shower, and lounge. An elevator connects the main living areas with ease, ensuring both convenience and longevity. A home of rare distinction detached, elegant, and designed for those who value sophistication without compromise.
