House of the Week: $3.8 million for a house of terraces in Forest Hill South

Bragging Rights: The lower level is at-grade and lined with picture windows, meaning it easily converts into a sun-filled studio or workspace, complete with its own bathroom and kitchenette.

Big Selling Point: The home was designed and built for the owner, MTF Design, and so there are plenty of top-of-the-line finishes, like a Boffi kitchen, Miele and Thermador appliances, Vola plumbing and motorized blinds (to keep out prying eyes).

Possible Deal Breaker: Because it’s a corner lot, the backyard is nearly non-existent, but the lush landscaping, massive terraces and city park at the front door won’t leave the owner wanting for outdoor space.

By The Numbers:

• $3,800,000 • $13,362 in property taxes (2014) • 5,400 square feet over 3 levels • 16-piece Bocci blown-glass chandelier • 14’ kitchen island • 7-car parking • 5 bathrooms • 3 bedrooms • 2 storeys • 2 balconies • 1 gas fireplace • 1-car garage • 1 security system • 1 nearby beltline park
