House of the Week: $2.25 million for a blend of old and new that’s quintessentially Rosedale
House of the Week: $2.25 million for a blend of old and new that’s quintessentially Rosedale
ADDRESS: 120 Glen Road
NEIGHBOURHOOD: Rosedale-Moore Park
AGENT: Audrey Azad, Re/Max Hallmark Realty
PRICE: $2,250,000
THE PLACE: Set deep in the heart of Rosedale, this 2.5 storey brick reno comes with all the accoutrements you’d expect from a posh pad—six-burner stove, built-in sound system, glass showers and hardwood floors—without the lavish excess and overstatement common to this price point. Ideal for a city-slicker family, it’s close to downtown, but far enough away the kids aren’t hanging out on Jarvis at night.
BRAGGING RIGHTS: Balconies and fireplaces aplenty. The master bedroom has a huge set of French doors opening to a Juliette balcony, the upstairs bedroom has its own balcony and one of the guest bedrooms houses one of the home’s five fireplaces.
BIG SELLING POINT: The open concept kitchen, which blends seamlessly with the dining and living areas, makes it a perfect spot for an intimate dinner party or one hell of Rosedale rager.
POSSIBLE DEAL BREAKER: If you haven’t lived in Rosedale before, be prepared to get lost a few times on your way back home. The meandering, curved streets may add to the house’s charm, but you’d better make sure that your GPS is working properly.
BY THE NUMBERS:
• $8,305.70 in taxes
• 6-burner stove
• 5 fireplaces
• 5 washrooms
• 4 bedrooms
• 4 parking spaces

Nicely done, but you have to live in Rosedale…no thanks!
Is this a flip? The scale of the furniture and rugs don’t seem quite right, and the Home Depot bath fixtures are a mixed bag of finishes and design styles. Maybe those blue-hairs buying it won’t notice, or have enough cash to change them out later. I am not slaging it, it’s well done overall, just notice the details that don’t quite make it a home run.
For me, Rosedale is the ultimate neighborhood. Seconds to… well everything, in the heart of the city, yet tranquil enough to live in every day. Perfect.
But the mass-market Home Depot fixtures and “seen it all before” furniture/decore choices are a real let down. And while it’s obvious the photographer used a wide-angle lens to give the viewer more of the room, it served more to distort the actual size/proportions of the home instead. Too bad.
