For obvious reasons, classical homes conceived by the famed architects of yesteryear enjoy a sacred place in the hearts of design aficionados. Lionsgate is one of those homes. Originally built in 1930 and designed by Roi L. Morin, this grand home oozes a delicate French sensibility and it is sited on an over 18,000sf lot.
The hallmarks of this home? The double entry doors flanking the entry hall: wrought iron on one side and a handsome paneled door on the other side complete with an original Lionshead door-knocker. Once inside, step down to the living room complete with double sets of French doors that lead out to the private gardens, and up two stairs to the cozy paneled library complete with walls of bookcases for your collections. On the other side of the central hallway, the dining room (my personal favorite room), with board & batten paneled walls, a lovely bowed window overlooking the brick terrace & a fireplace (imagine the great dinner parties you could have in that room!). Behind the dining room is the original breakfast nook, kitchen, and a lovely brick patio for your BBQs. Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms including the master suite plus so much uncommitted space-create a fourth bedroom, playroom, home gym or? The lower level is ready for your imagination with room for a huge wine cellar & more. Did I mention that there is garage space for 3 vehicles? Always wanted to have a pool? There is room here…the lot is huge and flat ~ in fact, at one time there was a pool many years ago.
Bring your creativity and imagination to this special opportunity and create your dream home!
