@@SnapszDuhh Balsam Avenue is not in downtown Toronto but, in fact, a 25-minute streetcar trip to Yonge Street. Balsam is a N/S running street at the eastern edge of Toronto's eastern beaches neighbourhood known to the denizens as "the Beach."
@@SnapszDuhh Checked Zillow, but it's not listed. Checked the link in this video, but didn't see a price. Per similar homes on Zillow, though, yeah, $3-5M most likely. The front looks so homey and welcoming. Too bad it's actually a super-expensive mansion only attainable by the very rich. :/
damatar Zoocasa is the Canadian version of Zillow. As of Sept 2020 there are two listed for sale fully renovated on Balsam south of Queen (close to lake) for $5 million CAD (about $3.8 M USD). North of Queen, where this property is, there were a couple shown as sold but couldn’t find this one (not all sales are reported, and it may not have sold); a beautiful house at 93 Balsam (a nicer but not as slick a Reno) sold for $2.8 M ($2 M USD). I’d guess the $3 Million was pretty close.
Perfect house.. on a gorgeous street.. but just give me a bigger yard for an inground lap pool and jacuzzi.. and I would never leave!!!! :))) Oh and thank you birdhouse.. I loved the length and detail of this video!!!!
The lot alone in "The Beaches" is valued at about $2 million. Not a bad size for "almost downtown Toronto". Never intended for a pool because the beach is a five minute walk away.
This house is absolutely beautiful. But the lot is too small for it. That’s why it has only one garage. But having said that the location surrounded by those beautiful tall trees is breathtaking and the floor plan is perfection. Very well done. Kindly provide info about the builder and the architect.
This house is fully renovated, but at least 70 to 90 years old. Only one garage because people only had one vehicle back then. The original architect and builders are long gone.
HELL YEAH!, Love the kitchen, red knobs on the Wolf and a pot filler tap. Countertops and island need to be darker, black marble maybe...yeah, that's the ticket.
This is a lovely neighborhood and the house is pretty. I just have 2 questions, coming from Europe: 1) Who cleans up the house every day and 2) how come all ground floor houses in Canada and the U.S don't have any window bars and the like? It's super easy to break in even if there's an alarm. You need window bars everywhere!!! Other than that, I'd love to live in a house like this, only a bit smaller.
In high crime areas people will have bars on Windows, however those high crime areas tend to be in low income areas, not an expensive neighborhood like this house is in
Elizabeth, so what's stopping criminals from breaking in to house like this? It's just a trip away from where they live. And they don't have to be dressed poorly in order not to cause suspicion. If I were a thief, I'd definitely break in to one of these houses. It seems so easy and unprotected. It would some time to estimate the risk, but it's definitely easy.
Hummingbird 22 coming from Europe, this kinda house with no protection is really frightening for us. That's why we don't buy a house on the ground floor. I would love to live in one of them in the US or in Canada but not in Europe. Different mentallity, see?
@@trulyyours4029 I guess that I'm lucky to have been born in Canada. Some people have alarms or dogs, but I've never seen a house with bars on the windows. I didn't realize that Europe was like that. Where about in Europe did you live ? Blessings from Canada !
This house is like the tardis. It looks like decent-average size on the outside but it's absolutely massive on the inside. £850,000 outside but £2,000,000 inside. (Also, I'm just a little disappointed with the the gardens.)

I’m not criticizing because I renovate houses and do the same thing as well, but..... everyone is tearing out the character of old houses, painting EVERYTHING white and putting in the grey plank flooring. I do it because it’s what every buyer seems to want these days. I wish a little character was still in style. The house does look clean and ready to move into.
I would refuse to paint the oak wood white and say to the owners: try it for a year and if you don't like it I'll paint it white or polka dot or whatever you want. Taste can be acquired.
Gorgeous traditional style home! Or should I say a mansion!? It’s such a dream house.. even the overall neighborhood looks like it’s on the high-end side.
Balsam Avenue runs down to Hubbard Blvd., which is the last E/W street before a grassy stretch which ends at the boardwalk. After that, is the sand and Lake Ontario.
Meh....some of the rooms on the main floor look like an institution. White walls followed up by white trim...no seperation or just lazy. And who the hell decieded to put gawdy gold fixtures and handles everywhere. That maybe was cool back in the 70's. No real backyard. Why is there 3 different sitting areas in the back yard? What can you do in that back yard? Nothing at all. In the kitchen you have a black island, white walls/trim and gold fixtures and handles...what the actual hell? Interior designer should be slapped. An elevator? I don't see expensive maintenance on that at all. Plus a tiny little 1 Prius car garage. No thanks, I'm assuming that place is an easy 1 million. Here in Alberta that's an estate property (2-3 acres) with 4 or 5 thousand square foot house. And I can't reach out and touch my neighbour. Not "squeezed" in between 2 other property's. But then people in Toronto are weird.
Absolutely gorgeous, although personally I think there could have been just a little bit more colour, so that it stays very classy but just feels warmer and more like a home
I thought the same. The house is so spacious, beutiful and well decorated but the yard is such a disappointment. In my opinion it needs some work done....also not the best thing to look out of the kitchen's window and see the grey stone wall...overall very nice project!
Yup. I'm seeing this a lot in architecture lately. New builds are sterile inside and out, and older houses are being "remodelled" to completely sterilize their interiors. Like, just leave the houses alone if they're not being properly restored.
It's one thing to update the kitchen and bathrooms, it's horrendous when the classic oak trim and panelling in this historic home are PAINTED white. Shocking.
4 mill for a custom build that has no main floor office and only a 1 car garage. No thanks. Also this isn't in the beaches. Its in the UPPER beaches. There is a very significant difference.
I wouldn't say it's ruined, it lacks a bit of character and the style they are going for doesn't work unless you use high grade materials. They did a good job foir the backyard. I feel the colour scheme for the interiors is off, should have gone with darker tones.
It's called staging. You remove most personal details and give it a minimalist look, so prospective buyers are better able to see the bones of the house and imagine their own style and decor. You can hire your own decorator to change things up, or do it yourself. Or you can buy a different house. ;-)
God bless you whoever lives in that beautiful house. I hope you’re happy there!
One of the most well planned and beautiful homes I ever seen. I loved the order and formality! Gorgeous!
damn this house is absolutely gorgeous! i wanna attempt to recreate it on The Sims haha
pumpkin looolll I was thinking the same thing
One of the main reasons i watch videos like these
Yes, somebody please recreate this on Sims.
Same
any Updates? :D
How did they create my dream house and neighborhood so perfectly?
Rite!💙
With old trees and shadows from them. Without big old trees around charming atmosphere is absent
Only has a 1 car garage
Lucas Fernandez and
It's spelled right
oh my goodness, that neighborhood! The trees! Beautiful.
I noticed that too! Loved the trees. Most suburbs here in Melbourne do not have such trees.
Amazing house, love the neighbourhood and the trees are a dream come true.
Wow, this is totally my dream home! Initially felt that there was too much white for my liking, still is but I'm in love!
I am surprised no one asked about the cost of the home. It ain't cheap! That's for sure!
Candis Carnegie We didn’t ask because we know it’s not cheap located not only in the GTA but downtown Toronto. Probably 3 million.
What's the cost of the home?

if you had 5 million laying around
my dream house, perfect, simple, elegant and clean, multi functional in one house 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Stunning home! Whoever did this remodel congrats!!
I dont believe that it’s a remodel, i think its a new-build
Love the colours the trees beautiful
Love this house, except for the gold handles and fixtures. Would have gone for darkened brass myself.

How much of this house?
Can I have a link to the house project?
Too much house... Not enough yard; and my eyes hurt from all the white

I love the exterior, but they overdosed on the white interior; too clinical feeling.
my feelings exactly...too white and hospice like...not my style
It looked very plain.
Agree
i expected some american style stones and woods instead they have this plain blackNwhite interior
It is STUNNING! It’s modern and clean, everyone is different but it’s perfect to me!!!
I'll buy one just like it one day.

What is price of this house?
Can you tell me?
Is it still available and with all the furniture?
Perfect!!!😍😚😚😚
Oh my gosh ! Je suis stupéfaite 😲 !
Nice home.
Espetacular de linda
It looks like a Flora Di Menna design.
Did they take every house in TO, gut it, paint it white and put that plastic flooring everywhere? Every one I look at is the same.
I. Never seen any bt like that
Pretty, but, like a lot of modern homes, people think they need to be devoid of colour to look "sleek". Throw some paint on those walls!
HERMOSA!!!!!
Toll Brothers written all over it.
Maravilhosa!!!
Heaven 💝
so good
Super!!!
This guy is a rider i saw helmets :)
price?
4.8 million

Nice neighbourhood, but the interior looks like an insurance office.
Yup
Too formal for my taste, but nice though.

Very spacious upstairs too.
Nice interior but horrible decor...so sterile.

im getting so sick of white interiors
@@Elizabethx15 yess! i totally agree
White interiors are sleek, modern are perfectly mature. A white canvas is the easiest way to sell a property to buyers.
Exactly! The outside is gorgeous but the inside is sickening white.
@@Trudy927 So after you buy it, you can change up the paint colour. What if they painted it in any other colour/s that didn't match your taste?
@@Elizabethx15 What colour would you like? Beige? Blue? Yellow?
Wow, beautiful home. Love the elevator for people with mobility issues.
That backyard is a disaster.
i like the different levels to it, but mowing that lawn would be dreadful haha
It's one of those things that looks cool on paper and in person but has no consideration for everyday functionality and maintenance

I do it because it’s what every buyer seems to want these days. I wish a little character was still in style. The house does look clean and ready to move into.
