About this home
Thoughtfully envisioned and executed by renowned Arklab Design Build, this custom residence is a study in modern architecture balanced with the warmth and practicality of a true family home. Featured on Amazon's Luxe Listings Toronto, the home is flooded with natural light and occupies a generous lot on a quiet crescent. Beyond the solid mahogany entry door, a dramatic double-height dining room, sculptural red-oak staircase and glass railings make an immediate impression without feeling overstated. The main living spaces unfold naturally around the home's central gathering points. The kitchen is designed for serious cooking and entertaining, with two substantial islands and Wolf and Thermador appliances. The adjoining family room centres on a three-sided gas fireplace, custom bar and wine display, while an architectural ethanol fireplace gives the living room its own distinctive character. Upstairs, all four bedrooms feature private ensuites, giving every family member a sense of their own space. The primary suite is particularly considered, with his-and-hers closets, a custom entertainment unit and a heated ensuite featuring a skylit shower that draws in natural light. The lower level is equally impressive, with soaring ceilings, polished concrete, heated floors, two additional bedrooms, awalkout and wet bar. Technology is seamlessly integrated throughout: smart-home controls, built-in speakers, smart PDLC window film, security cameras and battery-operated blinds complement the design. Outside, a heated front porch, walkway and driveway add year-round comfort. A two-car garage and driveway parking for four additional vehicles ensure the practical details are as carefully resolved as the architectural ones. Dramatic yet comfortable, highly designed yet genuinely livable, and sophisticated without sacrificing the ease of family life, this is a rare combination of architectural pedigree, generous scale and thoughtful execution.
