House of the Week: $8.7 million for a stylish Lawrence Park detached with an indoor rock climbing wall

Neighbourhood: Lawrence Park Agent: Barry Cohen, Barry Cohen Homes Price: $8,699,000

The place

A four-bed, seven-bath detached in Lawrence Park. This place has some serious curb appeal—a stately stone façade with elegant tinted windows, tucked behind a leafy oak tree.

The 7,000-square-foot interior is even more appealing. It’s modern everything, from the white oak floors to the glass railings to the vaulted ceilings. There’s also a bevy of luxurious features: elevator, movie theatre, sauna, backyard pool and even an indoor rock climbing wall.

The tour

Here’s the entrance, with inviting herringbone white oak floors throughout:

There’s a walnut-panelled reeded wall in the dining room. Can you spot the hidden door on the right? It leads to a caterer’s kitchen.
