46 Forest Hill Road - FOREST HILL
This is a 6+1 bedroom, 8 bathroom house on a 90 x 185.22 foot lot at 46 Forest Hill Road in Forest Hill.
It was the Globe and Mail Home of the Week at the beginning of June.
According to the article, it is owned by Frank Toskan, co-founder of MAC cosmetics, and Darren Zakreski. They bought the home 10 years ago when the house looked like this...
In 2013, they began a full renovation that included changing the front of the house to this...
And it's kind of a love it or hate it house. I am leaning to the latter.
But inside, it's kind of amazing...
Especially these floor plans...
Those are crazy floor plans.
I love the masculine feel of the house and I especially love the Élitis wallpaper in the master bedroom that I have mentioned before.
The bathroom is not bad either, but if the large bay window is the shower...
Then can you see a full body silhouette of someone showering in the window at night...
That's kind of awkward. Maybe there are waterproof curtains for the night time.
This house is listed at $18,800,000.
That's $800,000 LESS than the price drop for Peter Munk's house at 24/26 Old Forest Hill Road...
That has floor plans to rival this house.
But that house is a double lot and has been sitting on the market for ages.
So, will this house do better with a more recent renovation? Not so sure. It is beautiful, but that is still a REALLY big price tag.
I'm thinking somewhere closer $12...maybe.
Wonder what they bought it for 10 years ago...
