Property Description
Introducing a truly remarkable property, originally built for one of Paris' first inhabitants and most successful businessmen. Known as Baird House, this estate sits atop a hill with a commanding presence over the charming town below, just a 90-minute drive from downtown Toronto. This distinguished victorian manor, rich in history and architectural grandeur, is set on a meticulously landscaped 0.85-acre lot, enclosed by a stately iron fence and gated for privacy. Renovated to impeccable standards, this home retains its historic character, featuring stained glass windows, coffered archways, and plaster-sculpted medallions that have been lovingly preserved and restored. Recent renovations, involving hundreds of thousands of dollars, have thoughtfully integrated modern conveniences while honouring the homes heritage. A striking addition to the property is the modern wing, featuring a loft with 10-foot ceilings and windows overlooking the side yard. Below this space lies a palatial garage that accommodates up to eight vehicles, complete with in-floor heating, four garage doors (including one designed for boat or RV storage), and multiple skylights that flood the area with natural light. This versatile garage not only meets practical needs but also offers possibilities for use as an artists studio or showroom. Inside, the main floor showcases an elegant blend of formal and casual living spaces. A spacious kitchen with a butlers pantry flows into a sunlit solarium dining room that comfortably seats 12 guests, perfect for entertaining. The main floor also includes a formal living room and den, recently opened up to create a light-filled, inviting space, as well as a family room. New hardwood flooring throughout the home thoughtfully accentuates its original features.The second floor, accessible via two separate staircases or a conveniently located elevator, houses four generously sized bedrooms, a laundry room and access to the loft space above the garage. **** EXTRAS **** A large attic offers unlimited potential, ideal for converting into an artists studio, additional bedrooms, or a private retreat. Dont miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of history in the heart of Paris. (id:24570)
