Continual renovations Saradidis said that since the home's initial build, it "has evolved thoughtfully over generations, beginning as a charming lakeside home and expanding over time into the substantial estate enjoyed today."

What is the main selling point? "The true distinction of this estate lies in its setting," Saradidis said, when describing the home's main selling point. "To possess nearly six acres of private grounds and an extraordinary waterfront presence within the City of Toronto is a rarity that simply cannot be replicated."

"The grounds are every bit as remarkable as the residence itself," said Saradidis. "Expansive lawns, mature trees, and beautifully established gardens create a setting that feels more akin to a private country retreat than a city property."
