Bonjour Boulton! Truly spectacular 2 storey beauty on leafy Boulton Ave in the heart of Riverside/Leslieville. A brand new renovation of this wider semi-detached century home with a layout so perfect...good luck ever moving again. Charming English cottage from the street which includes an incredible flowering magnolia tree captivating the neighbourhood every spring. Inside? Elevated modern living throughout its nearly 2900 sq ft of carefully curated & quietly luxurious space. Seller/designer worked diligently to preserve original features from 1878 including the stone fireplace, sky high ceilings (on every level), & the main newel post at the entrance. entrance. Substantial and transformative almost 30feet, 2 storey addition - dramatically expands the home's footprint. Main floor interior highlights include nearly 10ft ceilings, dramatic arches, a family room (adjacent to the kitchen) with massive windows/doors leading to landscaped/hardscaped backyard with parking, & a handy powder room exactly where you need it to be. Every single fixture, appliance, light & detail, chosen with consideration & care. Upstairs, you'll discover 4 bedrooms - all with built-in closet systems - including a peaceful primary suite at the back of the house & away from the chaos. The main family bath is an absolute show stopper with freestanding tub & wet room design. The lower level/basement was professionally underpinned creating rare 8 ft ceilings throughout. A legal, bright & sunny 2 bedroom basement suite with tucked away walkout, now exists. It is still very much connected to the house & doubles as amazing flex space for guests if you needed it to be so. Legendary Riverside neighbourhood with equally legendary restaurants (hello Bonjour Brioche best brunch of your life), cafes, independent shops, galleries, & access to transit. An easy 'Yes'. The total package in one of Toronto's most beloved hoods. This home lives far larger than its sweet facade would ever suggest. Come & get it. (id:63357)
