Custom $6.5M Toronto mansion a unique find in neighbourhood that rarely sees new builds

The Toronto real estate market is known for turning heads thanks to its many unique living opportunities. Now, a property in the city's north end is making waves for its design, location, and size.

Say hello to 264 Cortleigh Boulevard, a custom-built home in the exclusive and established Lytton Park neighbourhood. Listed now at $6.5 million, the 5+2-bedroom, 8-bathroom home is bringing timeless architecture and refined design to an area that rarely sees new builds.

The home starts off on the stunning main floor, where bright whites make a modern splash. Hosting the spacious kitchen, living, family, mud, and dining rooms, the first floor features 12.5-foot ceilings (some with bespoke vaulting) and hardwood flooring throughout the open-concept layout.

The snow-melt system for the driveway, front porch, and steps, plus the heated garage, really just adds to the thoughtful home design. (Photo by Mitch Fain)

The chef-inspired kitchen comes alive with its striking, modern design and quality appliances from Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Miele. An oversized centre island and custom cabinetry complete the space, which flows into the family room and backyard walkout.
