Address: 412 Fairlawn Avenue
Neighbourhood: Ledbury Park
Agent: Roman Tsekhman, Forest Hill Real Estate Inc., Brokerage
Price: $4,299,000

The Place: A completely customized four-bedroom house on a ravine near Lebury Park.

Bragging Rights: The only thing more exclusive than being a member at a private sports club is having a cedar sauna and regulation-sized squash and basketball court in your house.

Big Selling Point: The fully-fenced yard was made for throwing large parties (but the cello sculpture is not included).

Possible Deal Breaker: The previous owners went to town at the Wagner furniture showroom. The bright colours and curvilinear built-ins won’t appeal to everyone.
