Lytton Park is a prestigious community with grand homes on large properties, such as this stately four-bedroom residence on a 40-foot lot, says agent Boris Kholodov.
“This is what everyone wants: a family home in a family neighbourhood,” says Mr. Kholodov. “It is a very treed area, but most importantly, this particular section of it is very close to all the desirable schools, such as John Ross, Glenview and Havergal.”
This two-year-old house displays fine form and function with nine and ten-foot ceilings; marble, granite and limestone finishes in all five bathrooms; and hardwood floors, moulded ceilings and pot lights in the living and dining rooms and an open family room and kitchen.
The kitchen is lavishly finished with Carrera marble counters, Shaker style cabinetry and upscale appliances.
Each bedroom has access to one of three bathrooms on the second floor, and features either vaulted ceilings or walk-in closets, or both in some cases.
One of the most impressive areas in the house is in the basement, which is above grade across the rear. “There is a recreation room with a very nice walkout to the backyard,” Mr. Kholodov explains. “That is something that many buyers found very desirable.”
Additional conveniences include a central vacuum system and a built-in garage.
