If you're not obsessed with quality, design, and craftsmanship,this is not the home for you.Before you notice the scale, you feel the intention.Set on an extraordinary 185-foot-deep irregular lot in Sherwood Park, this property offers something almost impossible to replicate in midtown: depth, privacy, open sky, and uninterrupted sightlines surrounded by mature trees.A three-year architectural pursuit built around one idea, permanence.The journey began in Tuscany, where authentic stone was hand-selected from mountain quarries. Over 30 slabs of Italian marble, Calacatta Vagli, Calacatta Viola, Arabescato, Travertine, Pietra Grey, individually chosen. Eight months were dedicated to fabrication and installation alone.The kitchen stands as a monolithic statement a 15-foot fully wrapped, bookmatched Calacatta Vagli island flowing seamlessly into marble-clad walls. A three-sided glass fireplace floats beneath vein-matched travertine framed in deep Pietra Grey.Rift-cut European white oak defines the architecture, floors, millwork, wall paneling, and the commanding 10 foot entrance door, all meticulously matched.Integrated Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Miele appliances disappear into the design. Heated floors extend from the interior living spaces to the driveway and garage. Triple-layer European windows flood more than 4,000 square feet of expanded living space with natural light.And then, the final act.A spectacular designer-landscaped backyard featuring a heated concrete pool clad in premium Trend Group tile, complete with a waterfall feature and convertible salt or chlorine system. Dual composite decks create layered entertaining spaces. A fully integrated Lynx outdoor kitchen. A 32-by-32 custom stone terrace. Intelligent landscaping. Curated lighting. Recognized for its exceptional architecture and designThis home has also been featured in Designlines and highlighted across many other respected magazines and design platforms.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Premium Pricing
At $2080/sqft, this property is priced above the Leaside average of $950/sqft. I'd want to see upgraded finishes, premium location, or recent renovations to justify this price point. During our showing, I'll point out exactly what you're paying extra for.
Market Position
At 23 days on site, this property has had reasonable exposure. It hasn't sold immediately (which often indicates overpricing), but isn't languishing either. There's likely room for a 3-5% negotiation from asking price.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Leaside are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Excellent Flexibility
With 5 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Leaside.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 5 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Leaside properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $21,663 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
