210 Douglas Drive is a rare opportunity to own a new construction home in historic Rosedale. This custom crafted home was designed by Richard Wengle and built by Lauren Homes in 2021 with quality materials and impeccable finishes. This handsome 5400 + square foot home is positioned on a premium south facing corner lot in a most coveted location.
The exterior facade of this home blends in perfectly with the original architecture of Douglas Drive. The red brick construction, paneled windows and gray slate roof are timeless. The front tiered garden, heated walkways and driveway are comprised of classic Belden Brick. The side yard is fully fenced and tree lined adding additional privacy for the entertainer’s patio.
Step into a stunning interior. The double front foyer is both welcoming and showcases the craftsmanship that can be found throughout the home. The heated porcelain floors lead to the chevron patterned wide planked oak hardwood floor that extends throughout the main floor, as do the paneled walls. The living room and dining room are a massive combined space. The living room has a Juliette balcony that overlooks the front yard and a double door walk-out to the side yard and outdoor terraces. The dining room flanks the living room and offers an extensive amount of seating and a gas fireplace that adds intimacy to the space.
A discrete butler’s pantry connects the living room and dining room to the kitchen. Ample cabinetry and expansive countertops line the pantry and the pocket doors can be engaged for added privacy. Every inch of the kitchen was well thought out. The massive centre island grounds the space and offers breakfast bar seating. Treebone Design constructed the cabinets and the bonus desk area. The fully integrated Wolf & Sub Zero appliances will be appreciated.
The family room is cozy and secluded, set away from the rest of the main floor making it the perfect retreat. The soaring vaulted 15 feet ceilings add to the acoustic and the gas fireplace adds to the relaxed ambiance.
The sleeping quarters span two floors. The second floor offers a most welcoming primary suite. Luxury exudes from the massive 5-piece ensuite bathroom. Nothing was overlooked in the design of this spa inspired oasis from the heated marble mosaic floor to the curbless glass and stone enclosed shower. The custom double vanity with gold finishes and the separate soaker bathtub will also be appreciated. Two more bedrooms which share a wonderfully appointed main bathroom complete the second floor.
The third floor is bonus space with two additional bedrooms each with ensuite bathrooms. The dormered roof line offers architectural interest and allows for natural light to cascade into each room. These bedrooms also share outdoor space, as each bedroom has a walkout to the third floor balcony.
The lower level has incredible ceiling height, measuring over 9 feet and large windows for abundant natural light. The entire floor boasts sought after in-floor heating. The recreation room has been divided into two distinct spaces. There is a phenomenal home gym with a rubberized floor and mirrored wall. An additional casual lounge space exists opposite the gym. A sixth bedroom with a private ensuite, a possible playroom, a massive laundry and must have mudroom finishes the interior space. The mudroom has direct access to the heated two car garage which has easy clean epoxy floors.
Rosedale is one of Toronto’s most prestigious neighbourhoods. Families gravitate to the quiet tree lined streets, large lots, numerous parks and parkettes. The local “village” off Summerhill Avenue houses a few essential businesses, but larger shopping districts are a short walk away off Yonge Street or Bloor Street. A bus route easily connects this pocket of Rosedale to the Subway. Traveling downtown by car is incredibly quick on either Mt Pleasant Road or the Bayview Extension. The close proximity to excellent public and private schools is also a big draw.
