One of the home’s two custom kitchens.
The action
Michelle Thompson of Grey Isle Design exercised her talents on her own home, creating two custom kitchens, five bedrooms and five bathrooms in this five-level backsplit home near the Queensway and Royal York Road. It was put on the market last fall, priced at $3.45-million.
“Rosemeade offered so much compared to other listings,” agent Alessia Polo said. The fact that it had entrances on three levels made it appealing to “multigenerational living or downsizers because it was easily accessible. Or someone could potentially operate a business.”
There were many visitors initially, but no offers to purchase. There was another surge in turnout after the asking price was slashed by $600,000. Ninety guests appeared at two open houses, and two of them tendered offers that weekend. The best bid was $2.8-million.
The living room has a vaulted ceiling.
What they got
The detached house has an attached double garage on a 68- by 125-foot corner lot.
On the main floor, the kitchen, living and dining rooms have vaulted ceilings.
A staircase leads up to three bedrooms. The ground floor, which at one time was a family room, has been converted into the primary bedroom, with a fireplace, a dressing room, a private bathroom and patio doors.
The lower level has a second kitchen and recreation area.
A fifth bedroom and media room are in the basement.
One of the three bedrooms.
The agent’s take
“It’s so hard to come by a five-level backsplit like this,” Ms. Polo said.
“I loved that they kept the original front doors and repurposed them in the primary bedroom. They were solid wood.”
