Toronto house that hasn’t been touched since the 1980s just hit the market for $6 million

Built in 1911, this Toronto home at 105 Cluny Dr. is a grand Edwardian residence with a stunning blend of history, charm, and location.

Set quietly on the east side of the street, the home’s handsome façade and friendly front porch invite you in with a sense of timeless elegance.

The five-bedroom, five-bath home has been owned and cherished by the same family for over 35 years, which is always a sign of a great home.

The foyer. 

In the 1980s, a renovation introduced an open-concept layout and enlarged the house to create 3,918 square feet of living space above ground, plus an extra 1,392 square feet below.

A bedroom. 

However, the 1980s remodel also introduced some questionable decor, which might throw some people. The sponge painted walls and brown carpet are hard to unsee. 

The main kitchen. 

However, as listing agents Paul Maranger, Christian Vermast, and Fran Bennett suggest, if you can get past the dated interiors, 105 Cluny Dr. is the perfect opportunity for a buyer to make it their own.

An office space with views of the garden. 

“The space is ready for a buyer’s renovation,” they say. “The massive two-storey window overlooking the back garden and floating staircase with open risers create a sense of airiness that was ahead of its time.”

The dining room with wood panelling. 

There are also plenty of other architectural details that are drool-worthy, like the wood coffered ceilings, original hardwood floors, and beautiful stone fireplace. 

One of the home’s most impressive features is the third floor.

The third floor unit. 

“The third floor is massive,” listing agent Bennett notes. “It was designed as a completely independent two-bedroom apartment with its own interior staircase and door. With vaulted ceilings and open living space, any teenager or university student would love their own pad.”

Another bedroom. 

Or it could be a potential income suite.

The large 50- by 122-foot lot itself is also a gem in and of itself.

The living room. 

“What a location!” said Maranger. “Yonge Street is less than two blocks away. You can even walk through the park’s pathway. The abundance of superb restaurants may prove to be too enticing.”

The backyard with the garage and greenhouse. 

In addition to its prime location, 105 Cluny Dr. boasts a private driveway leading to a detached two-car garage with an attached greenhouse, which offers endless possibilities.

“It would make the dream conversion into a home office, home gym, or art studio,” added Vermast. 

The primary suite. 

But in short, 105 Cluny Dr. is one of those heritage houses that, in the right hands, will be truly stunning.

105 Cluny Dr. is listed for $5,995,000.
