House of the Week: $3.7 million for a Forest Hill family home with a tricked-out backyard

Bragging Rights: With a wet bar, a butler’s pantry, marble counters and a chandelier, that is one classy kitchen.

Big Selling Point: The interior decorator who owns the home gutted it in 2011, but wisely kept the original façade so that it would continue to mesh with the style of the neighbourhood.

Possible Deal Breaker: The tile flooring spelling out “boys” and “girls” in the kids’ bathrooms is adorable—unless your children are all the same sex.
