FLASHBACK ✨ to one of the most unforgettable homes of our careers 🏡❤️

We still remember the buzz 💫 around this one… and for good reason.

✨ This true Old Parkdale gem was built in 1912 by renowned Toronto architect and builder Henry Simpson as his own personal residence, something that is incredibly rare in itself.

✨ Homes designed by an architect for their own family were typically built with higher craftsmanship, better materials, and more thoughtful design than speculative builds of the era 🕰️

✨ The home was part of early Parkdale’s transformation into one of Toronto’s most desirable pockets in the early 1900s, when grand homes and estates were being built near the waterfront for affluent families. Very few of these original homes remain intact today, which made this opportunity even more special ✨

✨ Inside, original stained glass, quarter cut oak beams, mahogany built ins, and custom Arts and Crafts detailing that had been preserved for over a century.

✨ Even more remarkable, the home had been held by the same family for nearly 50 years before coming to market, something almost unheard of in central Toronto ❤️

✨ Outside, a massive oversized lot with mature trees and parking for 9 cars, almost impossible to find this close to downtown 🌳🚗

The sale was featured across multiple major publications 📰 highlighting the home’s history, architecture, and rarity in the Toronto market.

Moments like this remind us why we ❤️ selling historic homes. They are not just properties, they are chapters of Toronto’s story.

Merry Christmas 🎄 from our families to yours! Hope your holiday is filled with love & kindness! ❤️
