I WANNA live there Wednesday # 4

I live in a pretty incredible area - It's an historical neighbourhood loaded with tons and tons and tons of charm - just steps away from the city center, it's also a pretty expensive neighbourhood :( in which I live in basically servants quarters compared to what I'm surrounded by.)

Because there's days I don't have furniture makeovers to show you - I've chosen Wednesdays to showcase and feature one home that's for sale around here.................( or apartment - or duplex - or teepee )
_____________________________________________________________________________________________

Good morning everyone - I'm listing 2 properties today - one of them is a virtual tour - click on the video at the end of my post to be transformed to another planet almost ( seriously ) beyond the realm...................
In the meantime I can imagine making my mark on this Gingerbread house

You had me at HELLO

kitchen

family room off kitchen - facing garden


I'm really not a fan of wood - but in this case I think I could live with it - loving how it faces the outdoor space

den

loving the trellis work - and the floors in this place are to die
and that radiator too cute for words

dining room - wouldn't a built in window seat be perfect in this room?

living room - I cannot tell you how much I love this room - that corner window is beyond charming!

hallway

Master bedroom

master bath

bedroom - WOW

bedroom - lo and behold - finally a window seat - and another corner window

love the alcove off this bedroom - God what I could do with this room

off the family room - my perfect back yard -

balcony - look at the space on this thing!!!!

And now if you have a   please ( please please please ) take a few moments to look at this video - ugghhh I can't download it - but if you click on the link and then click on VIRTUAL TOUR to the right side of the page I promise you it's worth your time - 

It's a mansion - 23 rooms - but it's the "homiest" mansion I've ever seen ( well that I've ever seen pictures of anyway lol )  you can just see the love that was put into decorating this space - every single corner of it and it looks lived in - this home is spectacular - Victorian living at it's absolute finest!
9 million dollars of dreams come true.
If you don't like music turn your speakers off - there's an overture playing in the background - it's fitting and I kind of like it but I know some people find audio annoying

This is still Westmount - but up on what is called " the summit " it's the highest point in this city.

Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullabye

I'm off to dream now because Judy told me that the dreams that I dare to dream really do come true and I really do WANNA live in that 1st house!!!

I WANNA live there Wednesday # 2

This is part of a series I am doing on homes found around my neighbourhood -
Please keep in mind that my entire home could fit in most of these homes kitchens - but a girl can dream can't she?

Very simple looking little row house cottage right?  Nothing flashy about this place - which is just the way I like it on the outside ( I like lots of glitz on the inside )  c'mon in - you'll be in for a pleasant surprise.....................

Agghhhh! Herringbone wood floors - and the banister and sisal carpet runner are perfect!

I love white kitchens - and I especially love this one - the hanging pendants are incredible

Eating nook - don't know what that image is on the art work but the scale of it is perfection

these people have serious taste - loving the piano in the corner -

Master bedroom and bath

I love white bathrooms as much as I love white kitchens

office - and powder room

secondary bedroom - hmmm - I recognize that Ikea bedspread lol

Basement - gorgeous ceilings

Basement bedroom

Basement bathroom

Laundry room

backyard

and the detached garage

that would be my painting space....................

so there you have it -

this could be yours for
2,150,000.00
and if I had it - I'd buy it - really loving this house :)

Have a good one,
Suzan
