\"\"106 Glenayr Rd. The home was built in 2025 and has since earned a handful of accolades for its interior design. This property, designed by Omid Taba OE Design, is currently on the market for $12.8 million. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"What awards did it win? This Forest Hill South property earned two accolades in 2025: one for the best luxury residential interior design in Ontario, and the luxury lifestyle award for the top 100 interior designers of the world. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"What awards did it win? “It’s really thanks to its consistent, rich, luxury tone achieved through not only architectural structures, (but its) interior top to bottom,” Jane Zhang, senior vice president of sales for Sotheby’s International Realty, said, pointing to the use of white oak and marble and “bespoke emerald palette.” (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"‘Turnkey convenience’ Sprawling 8,750 square feet, there are six bedrooms and eight bathrooms within the three-storey estate. Zhang says the home’s design focused on “instant luxury,” providing a high-end hotel feel through its high level amenities. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Lots of closet space Each bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom, large dressing room and “precious boudoir.” (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Located in a prestigious neighbourhood Zhang pointed out that this residence is located right in the heart of one of Toronto’s “most expensive parcels of land,” with most mansions situated on a large lot. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"‘Magazine-worthy’ chef’s kitchen The kitchen features two marble waterfall islands and high-end, built-in appliances, including three Miele dishwashers and a customized Lacanche range stove with an oven. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Coffee, anyone? For those who love a cup of coffee, the kitchen also boasts a built-in Miele coffee maker. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Levelled-up movie night Zhang described the at-home threate like a VIP cinema. “The reason for VIP is because (of) the installation layer, including soundproof wall treatment, seating treatment, lighting and smart controls,” she said. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Concrete layered garden Zhang says this garden contains custom lighting, which can be changed for different “moods” and walks out around the home’s pool and barbecue area. “It’s a very cool, kind of continuing flow from indoor to out,” Zhang said. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Heated backyard pool This fully landscaped backyard features a heated, concrete Betz pool. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Craving a drink? Take a seat at the home’s cocktail bar Right next to the sitting lounge, is this cocktail bar lathered in marble and complete with a temperature controlled wine cellar. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Thoughtfully designed cocktail bar What sets this area a part, Zhang says, is the fully temperature controlled wine room connected to the bar. “When you’re trying to serve yourself or your guests of some good drink, how convenient (is it that) you have a direct, connected, temperature-controlled, and large wine room next to it,” Zhang said. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"What other amenities are there? The home has its own elevator that services all three storeys, and a wellness exercise room. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"What other amenities are there? There is also a massive three-car garage, which Zhang says is a particularly notable feature of the home. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"What other amenities are there? The garage, driveway and all of the stone stairs have a snow melt system, Zhang said, eliminating the need to shovel.
\n“This is an important amenity because, remember, we are in Toronto, a winter city,” Zhang said. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"An advanced control system Zhang also pointed to the mansion’s smart control system, which she says can be accessed right from the prospective homeowner’s phone (which can be accessed via WiFi or data). (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"An advanced control system The Control4 system can access a variety of features within the home, including lighting, the security system, and the heated floors all throughout the property. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Bright with lots of windows The property is brimming with natural light thanks to wall-to-wall windows and its nine skylights. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Natural light and airflow Zhang says the home is thoughtfully engineered to make way for an “open-to-above” flow to create a somewhat airy environment all throughout. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Space to hangout in There are several areas to lounge around in for quiet nights at home with the family, or to entertain guests. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"On the market for $12.8 million The home was once listed on the market for around $14 million, but is up for sale now at $12.8 million (a price Zhang says was adjusted ot the current market). (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Flowy design The family room and the rec room in the basement can easily walk out to the home’s backyard. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Cozy up by the fire There is also a gas fireplace to light up right from the comfort of the bedroom. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Designed for ‘discreet luxury connoisseurs’ Through every floor of the home, Zhang says this property was built for those seeking luxury, high-end comfort. (Jane Zhang & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty Canada) \"\"Designed for ‘discreet luxury connoisseurs’ “This person can just move in with luggage as they move into a Four Season hotel,” Zhang said, noting how the automated control systems cane make everything feel ready by the timethey arrive home.
