Address: 31 Edenbrook Hill
Neighbourhood: Edenbridge-Humber Valley
Agent: Alex Brott, Keller Williams Referred Urban Realty, Inc.
Price: $1,999,999

The Place: A perfectly preserved 1960s home by the architecture firm Gardiner Cowan.

Bragging Rights: The only way you could host a more authentic Mad Men party would be to travel back to the 1960s themselves, but then you’d have to watch it on a tiny television—and, you know, find yourself a flux capacitor.

Big Selling Point: This home feels like a well-kept museum, with authentic 1960s touches like LP-sized cubbies, Douglas Fir beams and even built-in fans, perfect for the era when smoking inside wasn’t a social faux-pas.

Possible Deal Breaker: Convincing the owner to part with the gorgeous mid-century furniture may be hard—especially when it comes to that majestic sailfish.
