Gem on Gren
Torontonians: Hope your hearts are ready for the most beautiful house in Roncesvalles (That’s right. I said it.). This detached heart shatterer on Grenadier Rd is brimming with style, grace and functionality. Four bedrooms, four baths, main floor family room, third storey retreat for royalty with many clothes, built-ins, brand new kitchen with top appliances (Sub-Zero, Miele, etc). This home is perfectly appointed from the top of its head to the bottom of the underpinned basement with separate entrance and walk-out to the MASSIVE private garden oasis. In the event that your jaw is still up, take a gander at two wood-burning fireplaces with antique mantles from Boston brownstone. Walk to Roncesvalles Village, a stone’s throw from High Park…this is truly a special gem. A gem on Gren. Come and get it, my thirsty future Roncesvallians!

Things to Love in Our Seller’s Words
- The back garden is truly outstanding. It’s lush, unique and HUGE.
- The front of the house is so beautiful too and really captured my heart.
- Previous owners did the dry stacked stone work throughout the gardens which was a lovely detail to work with.
- The main drag on Roncesvalles has so many great shops, markets, and food (Mercantile, La Cubana, Muttonhead, Cherry Bomb Cafe etc).
- No need to drive (even though the house has two car parking) as it’s a great walking neighbourhood. one of the city’s best, I think. I never touch my car unless I have to for longer trips out of town etc.
- High Park, the largest park in the city, is right there a few steps away.
- This house has so much light from the massive banks of windows, floor-to-ceiling doors, and skylights in the family room and third floor.
- Love the main and second-floor wood-burning fireplace. The mantels were sourced from a townhouse in Boston, MA.
- So many bathrooms! No one will ever be fighting for access.
