18 Wychwood Park, Toronto, Ontario M6G 2V5

Wychwood Park is one of Toronto's most unique residential enclaves a private park with just sixty homes, set among some of the city's oldest oak trees. Recognized as a Heritage Conservation District, the park is celebrated for its many Arts and Crafts style houses built in the early 20th century. Leading architect Eden Smith, who helped define this era in Toronto, lived nearby. Founded in the 1870s by artist Marmaduke Matthews and his friend Alexander Jardine, Wychwood Park was home to Marshall McLuhan and countless artists.18 Wychwood Park is a two and a half storey home built in 1920, offering four bedrooms (three on the second floor and one on the third) and two light-filled sunrooms overlooking the back garden. Each floor has a bathroom, including the basement, which also contains a steam room. Two features make this home especially distinctive: the wood-burning fireplace in the living room and the grey marble console sink in the second-floor main bath. The cream-coloured marble fireplace was salvaged from an 1880s Sherbourne Street mansion being demolished in 1943purchased for just $10 at the time! The vintage console sink, dating to 1910, was installed during the 1996 renovation by the late Jim Addison, a specialist in historic plumbing fixtures. The house is heated by a gas-fired boiler with both radiators and radiant floor heating, complemented by a tankless hot water system. Extensive 1996 renovations replaced every wire, pipe, and floor, ensuring modern function within the home's historic framework. Floors in the front hallway, kitchen, first-floor sunroom, and second-floor bathroom are finished in unpolished marble warmed by radiant heat. The kitchen combines character with practicality, featuring stainless steel countertops, a Sub-Zero fridge, Kitchen Aid gas/electric range, and Bosch dishwasher.
