This magnificent Victorian in historic Cabbagetown presents a golden opportunity to own a living work of art. An extraordinary home for lavish entertaining and simultaneously as a respite from the city in its serene private quarters. An elegant reception area for fireside cocktails overlooks the garden-facing bay window. Rich espresso wide-plank hardwood carries into the formal dining room with complimenting fireplace where memorable gatherings are formed under the sparkle of a chandelier. Chefs will relish the designer kitchen with timeless white cabinets, honed marble countertops & antique brass accents. Fully equipped with deluxe appliances including the LG InstaView refrigerator, integrated Bosch dishwasher & Kitchenaid gas range. Adjacent is a comfortable spot to curl up with a book & coffee, while keeping the cook company. Your living space flows through a suite of French doors to its own deck complete with hot tub. The enclosed backyard oasis spans the rear of the property, effortlessly blending the indoors & outdoors. A discreet powder room rounds out the offerings to the ground floor. The restored grand staircase rises to a landing flanked by impressively-scaled complimentary bedrooms with chic wall murals, deep closets & calming views from oversized windows. A third bedroom makes an ideal nursery, den or home office. A handsome bathroom services this level. Ascend to the top floor and unwind in the privacy, tranquility, and seclusion that the primary suite offers. Featuring the home's 3rd gas fireplace and a private dressing room. The ensuite bath rivals any spa with a freestanding soaking claw-foot tub nestled under the vaulted ceiling, a double glass shower & dual vanity sinks. Your sanctuary grants access to the sprawling sundeck that boasts rooftop vistas of surrounding architecture & treetops, creating an escape within an escape.
