An Unique experience to stay in a Restored 1874 Grand Victorian Heritage Home. You are invited to embrace the refined elegance of our charming home, well curated with French Antiques and modern custom-made pieces. One of our guest suite features a luxurious Italian marble ensuite bathroom, a large vintage claw tub, two large skylights; the other has a more modern eclectic feel. We are all about sustainability and not using harsh chemicals for cleaning. If you book the Deluxe Garden Room, you will be close to our majestic American Elm, loved by squirrels, raccoons, red cardinals, robins, blue jays etc even a falcon if you are lucky!
********ONLY REGISTERED GUESTS ARE ALLOWED ON PREMISES AT ANY TIME, NO EXCEPTIONS******* Walking under the canopy of the old Cabbagetown' trees one can forget about the noise of the modern city. You can immerse yourself in the past looking at the old Victorian houses and yet walk to shops and modern or ethnic restaurants. We are a professional couple (IT and Engineer) that enjoys hosting. Helpful without being intrusive, we are here to answer your questions and to make sure you have a pleasant, memorable stay with us. Our home it's a delightful retreat after a day enjoying the "city buzz".
We are located in Toronto's 'Cabbagetown' which is known for having the largest collection of preserved Victorian homes in North America. Been in the heart of downtown, we are only blocks from Toronto's famous Eaton Centre and so many other of Toronto's most recognized landmarks (CN Tower, Distillery District, Scotiabank Arena, Hockey Hall of Fame, Royal Ontario Museum, AGO)...just to name a few.
