Welcome to 14 Maynard Ave
14 Maynard was designed in 1904 by one of Toronto’s foremost Architects of the period Henry Simpson, for wealthy local businessman Samuel Richardson.
Beyond the private gated entrance this residence features over 4500 sq ft. of impeccable living space. Including a restored coach house and professional sound studio with additional living quarters.
This iconic turn-of the century home has been architecturally redesigned, reimagined and renovated to flow perfectly for everyday living. The ultrachic simplicity is evident immediately upon entering the home with blonde maple hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, oversized solid wood doors, and floor to ceiling windows.
The main floor features a modern foyer with a double closet and 2pc powder room.
A formal living room with a bay window and pocket doors, which could alternatively serve as a main floor office.
A chefs kitchen containing top-of-the-line Bertazzoni and Bosch appliances, a 12 foot quartz & Caesar stone island, and a solid marble backsplash, overlooking a spacious dining room and combined with an exquisite family room that walks out to an enormous backyard.
The second floor boasts an intimate master bedroom complete with a dressing room and custom closets. As well as an elegant master en suite with a private water closet, a decadent soaker tub, a victorian sink and a glass surround shower.
Additionally the second level provides another bedroom, a linen closet, a 4pc family bathroom, a large laundry room with a deep sink, bright window and ample built in cupboard storage.
But perhaps the pièce de résistance is the stunning second floor Great Room surrounded with pristine and original leaded and stained glass windows creating unparalleled interior decadence.
The third-floor offers another full bathroom and two more generous bedrooms, with one boasting a sitting area and a walk out to a south facing balcony.
This enormous lot is 41ft x 147ft & is completely fenced and landscaped front and back to provide maximum green space and privacy with minimum maintenance. Still plenty of room to add an in-ground swimming pool and recreational spa area.  Also featuring a storage shed, a hard scape deck, custom iron planters, and a private drive with parking for up to four cars.
Basement and Coach House
Complementing the main house, the basement and Coach House were finished impeccably with similar style and attention to detail.
Offering an industry standard professional sound studio with a mixing room (currently utilized as a recreational room), a recording studio, and multiple recording booths. Â
Also featuring a fully self-contained one bedroom apartment with polished concrete floors, above ground windows, a full kitchen with Wolf and Subzero appliances, and a three piece bathroom.
And once again, when an opportunity to preserve and maintain the original integrity of the home was revealed no expense was spared. Currently existing under the floor of the mixing studio (via retractable floor door) is the original wheel pit with the old steel gear mechanism in the middle, the original contraption resembled a giant Lazy Susan and was used to turn cars around so they did not have to back up.
