260 St Leonards Avenue

There's a certain kind of house that makes you pause before you even reach the door; 260 St. Leonards Avenue is that kind of place. Tucked away in Lawrence Park, this Georgian-inspired home, built in 2003, blends classic architecture with a touch of modern style across 6,000 square feet and three levels. Inside, the atmosphere is welcoming and bright, with sunlight pouring through the foyer and highlighting custom millwork. There's a private office for focused work, and the living room, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, is made for cozy evenings. The dining room features stained glass and custom wainscotting, elevating even the simplest meal. At the heart of the home is the kitchen: a marble-topped island, custom cabinetry, and high-end appliances. Sunlight fills the breakfast nook, while the family room, complete with a gas fireplace and a wall of windows blends seamlessly with the outdoors. French doors lead to a deck perfect for barbecues, with a stone patio and gas fireplace surrounded by gardens for total privacy. This backyard is made for gatherings, alfresco dinners, and unforgettable summer nights. Practical spaces get equal attention: a designer powder room, main-floor laundry with built-in storage, and a bar area for entertaining. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat with vaulted ceilings, a custom dressing room, and a spa-like ensuite featuring a waterfall shower and dual marble vanities. Three additional bedrooms are sunlit and spacious, each with custom closets. The lower level is designed for fun; think recreation room with fireplace, gym, guest/nanny suite with ensuite bath, flex space, access to the garage, and a climate-controlled wine cellar. The location is unbeatable: tree-lined St. Leonards Avenue offers easy access to trails, top private schools, and the Granite Club. This is a home that balances sophistication with everyday comfort and room to grow.
