Every rear window frames uninterrupted treetop views, and the home opens to the outdoors across two full levels of walk-out living. No rear neighbors ever. Approximately 3,800 sq ft of beautifully appointed space showcases extensive custom millwork - picture-frame wainscoting, layered tray ceilings, statement crystal chandeliers, and rich dark hardwood throughout. A dramatic two-storey foyer with arched transom windows and oak staircase sets the tone. Formal living and dining feature classical paneling, marble-surround gas fireplace, and gleaming chandeliers.

Walk out to the elevated glass-railed deck - your private treetop terrace overlooking the ravine canopy. The family room extends the nature connection with custom built-in bookshelves, cozy fireplace, and oversized ravine-facing windows. Upstairs, four generous bedrooms include a luxurious primary retreat with spa-inspired 5-piece ensuite - frameless glass shower, corner soaker tub beneath a crystal chandelier, double quartz vanity, walnut accents, marble flooring. Over $150,000 renovation. Direct access to house from garage. The walk-out lower level is a true second home. Fully self-contained 1-bedroom apartment with kitchen, living room, and its own grade-level walk-out into the ravine yard. Ideal for in-laws, nanny suite, or rental income with private access.

Talk to Team Asgarian about your options

Rates and programs change often. We will connect you with a trusted mortgage professional and build a plan that fits your budget and goals.

Let's connect

Estimates only, not a mortgage quote or pre-approval. Figures use Canadian semi-annual compounding, current minimum down-payment rules, CMHC premium tiers, and Ontario (plus Toronto, when selected) land transfer tax. Actual rates, taxes, insurance, and closing costs vary by lender and property. Confirm every number with your mortgage professional.

Investor snapshot

Rental yield

Income potential: the basement has a separate entrance, which often supports a rentable in-law or second suite. That can lift real rent well above the figure above and help carry the mortgage. Ask us about permitted use in this area.

Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.

Talk about the numbers

Estimates only. Rent is modelled on above-grade size and local norms, so a finished basement or second suite (a separate entrance often means one) can push real rent well above this. Taxes, fees, and vacancy vary by property, and cap rate is before financing. A starting point, not a final number, let us run the real ones with you.
