Description
One Banfield is one the most unique and prominent period homes in the entire region and just 90 minutes from downtown Toronto. Rich in history, this imposing and very elegant Gothic Victorian estate was built in 1854 for Mr. Charles Whitlaw, owner of the Paris Mills, the largest in the province at the time. Many of the original historic features are intact or have been lovingly restored including the slate roof, hardwood floors, copper eaves, five fireplaces, plaster mouldings, spectacular millwork, and other old-world accents. The house was built to a level of quality unheard of today, with two-foot-thick walls to create a quiet sanctuary. Millions of dollars have been invested by the current owners in restorations, improvements, and renovations. The house offers over 5800sqft across the two levels, plus 1389sqft of potential square feet in the incredible attic and an additional 1716sqft in the lower level. Situated on a hill, the nearly one-acre property provides the utmost in privacy and is enclosed by a tall wrought iron fence. The property has beautiful old trees, stone terraces, lush mature gardens, and landscaping designed by landscape architect John Lloyd. A 54 x 20 foot saltwater pool, at the back of the garden with two waterfalls. The pool area is anchored at the north end by twin cabanas and a sitting or dining area covered by a pergola. The ground floor alone measures over 3400sqft. With a palatial dining room and equally large formal living-room, a family room with working fireplace and a large sunroom (currently used as a study). The 2391sqft second floor has four large bedrooms and two ensuite bathrooms. There is a third large spa main bathroom with a skylight and steam room. On the third floor, a 1389sqft unfinished attic space, with high ceilings, is ideal for future development. Off the large country kitchen is a charming fifth bedroom (which was formerly the maids quarters) with an ensuite bathroom.
