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.
with an 80-foot frontage, the property also offers genuine redevelopment potential. opportunities of this calibre, on a street of this stature, are uncommon.
private viewings available by appointment.
