Summerhill Lifestyle Living

Welcome to 122 MacPherson Avenue, an award-winning Victorian that has been completely re-envisioned and expanded to create a magnificent four-plus-one bedroom, five-bathroom family residence in prime midtown Toronto, steps to the shops, amenities, and lifestyle of both Summerhill and Yorkville.

An architecturally significant staircase is a masterpiece and the heart of this home. The project’s architecture studio, LAMAS, explains that “the rounded edges of the walls, circular volumes of space, and smaller flourishes resolved in moldings and millwork give the interior void of the stair a feeling of inexhaustible motion,” a design that helped the home win an Architect’s Newspaper Best Residential Interior Design Award in 2022.

A luxurious chef’s kitchen boasts a backsplash made of Blue Banfield marble, a walk-in pantry, centre island, and built-in Gaggenau appliances. The open-concept dining room and family room area provides flexibility in layout and configuration.

The primary bedroom includes a five-piece ensuite and a walk-in closet area with sleek built-ins. A front bedroom with a gas fireplace and built-in shelving offers the flexibility of being an additional family room.

The third floor features spacious bedrooms, vaulted ceilings, a multifunction hallway zone, a three-piece bathroom, and the light-infused pinnacle of the inspiring staircase.

The lower level, with eight-foot ceilings, provides a mudroom, laundry room, three-piece bathroom, temperature-controlled wine closet, and two flexible rooms that can serve as bedrooms, a recreation room, an office, and more. Storage abounds throughout the home.

Radiant in-floor heating is provided on all four levels with individual temperature controls for each floor. This is the Bentley of heating systems, and the home also includes central air-conditioning. Details such as light switches from Dowsing and Reynolds, wall sconces from Allied Maker, and Breccia Capria marble (from the same slab) in all of the bathrooms will not go unnoticed.

A landscaped back garden is perfect for outdoor relaxation and entertaining. The custom-formed stucco façade of the three-storey rear expansion is something to behold. The striking landscaped front yard provides the perfect welcome as you walk up to enter.

This is elevated lifestyle living in one of Toronto’s most coveted neighbourhoods.
