Welcome to a RARE OPPORTUNITY to own an ELEVATED & EXPANSIVE 60' x 120' (approximately 7,080 sq. ft.) R-CG zoned lot in the prestigious inner-city community of St. Andrews Heights. Offering exceptional REDEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL and impressive elevation, this property presents the opportunity to build a custom luxury home with the possibility of STUNNING downtown, river valley, and mountain VIEWS from a future two-storey residence. The home also has great bones for a LUXURY RENOVATION.
Offered for sale for the FIRST TIME by its original owner, this remarkable property is unlike anything else. Designed and built almost entirely by hand, the home showcases an extraordinary level of CRAFTSMANSHIP rarely seen today. From the HAND-CUT STONE exterior to the custom-built Bird's Eye maple cabinetry, every detail reflects decades of dedication, ingenuity, and pride of ownership. Even the spacious cold storage room was built with heavily reinforced concrete walls, ceiling, and floor, exemplifying the owner's uncompromising approach to quality and durability.
While the home has been lovingly maintained, it remains largely original, presenting buyers with multiple possibilities. RENOVATE and RESTORE this unique residence, expand upon its existing character, or take advantage of the premium lot and desirable R-CG zoning to create a spectacular new CUSTOM HOME or redevelopment project (subject to City approval).
Additional updates include a roof replaced in 2014 and a furnace replaced in 2004.
