$2 million Toronto home is a minimalist gem in a vibrant neighbourhood

Nestled in one of the city’s most vibrant up-and-coming neighbourhoods, this $2 million custom-built Toronto home will surely sate anyone on the hunt for luxurious lodgings at an attractive price.

Ask anyone familiar with the city’s west end, and they’ll tell you that Etobicoke’s New Toronto area is one of the city’s most desirable places to put down roots, complete with a deeply connected sense of community, great restaurants, charming local businesses and breathtaking views of the waterfront.

And that’s just a small part of what makes 40 Sixth Street so special.

Offering easy access to the streetcar, bus routes, the local GO Station and Highway 427, this modern minimalist marvel is truly the cream of the crop in its neighbourhood — and it could be yours.

Front entrance at 40 Sixth Street.

Sitting at approximately 4000 sq. ft of living space, the three-storey home is replete with exquisite details and luxurious finishes, including oversized windows throughout, nine-foot ceilings, rich hardwood flooring in all main areas and elegant LED pot lights.

It’s a little less sexy to discuss, but it also features dual HVAC and AC systems, smart blinds, a central vacuum, and rough-ins for a power backup generator, smart home and ceiling speakers.

The ground floor.

Not to be outdone by the home’s contemporary exterior, your first glimpse at its interiors reveals a similar sleekness, held together on the main floor with an open-concept floor plan that flows seamlessly to expansive windows looking out over the backyard.

A black marble fireplace in the living room creates a sultry sensibility, while brighter elements like skylights over the mono-bean staircase and quartz countertops in the kitchen keep things comfortable and casual.

The kitchen.

Speaking of the gourmet kitchen, it all revolves around the dazzling 11.5-ft. quartz centre island with waterfall edges that allows for ample bar seating and cooking space, which is complemented by minimalistic built-in cabinetry and high-end appliances.

The dining room.

For sit-down meals, the dining space is located just off the kitchen, which saves time (and potential for mess) on lengthy trips for second helpings.

The owner’s suite.

Of all the luxe elements to be found at 40 Sixth Street, the top-floor owner’s suite has to be among the best.

Occupying the entire third storey of the home, the enormous 336 sq. ft. space will have you actually wanting to go to bed early, with a cozy fireplace, ample light from large windows and stylish his-and-hers walk-in closets.

The primary ensuite.

The owner’s suite also features a deeply lavish five-piece ensuite bathroom with heated floors, a smart toilet and floor-to-ceiling windows that create a flood of natural light — but don’t worry, you can close the blinds when you want to take a soak in the tub.

Another bedroom.

Down below on the second level, you’ll find an additional three spacious bedrooms, each equipped with its own closet, and two bathrooms; one shared five-piece and one five-piece ensuite, both with heated floors.

Another bathroom.

Taking after the primary ensuite, each of the home’s bathrooms are similarly opulent, with the quartz and marble motif found on the ground floor carrying on throughout.

A balcony.

The home also boasts several balconies off the front and back of the house, offering peaceful views of the lush neighbourhood year-round.

The basement.

The finished basement is almost an extra home in and of itself, with its own kitchen, family room, three-piece bath, rough-in for a second laundry and heated floors.

The lower level also features a rough-in for a home theatre in the rec room, which could also have potential for conversion into an additional bedroom.

The backyard.

In the backyard, interlocked stonework allows for multiple sets of patio furniture, making maintenance and summertime entertaining an absolute breeze, paired with a full outdoor kitchen that includes a built-in fridge, Napoleon BBQ and sink.

The backyard has already been prepared for the addition of a hot tub, so if that’s your cup of tea, all you have to do is bring your own.
