Sandringham Drive
North York, Ontario
2004-2005

On a tucked-away country road in the heart of the city, this new home symbolizes the essence of the Old World.

Modeled after the informal country homes of Provence, the stone residence resonates warmth and comfort. The home is situated on an acre of land that overlooks a magnificently wooded ravine. Viewed from the gardens, the main house provides a majestic backdrop to a strategically placed cabana and pools. The light-filled interiors are in constant reference to the gardens. Materials were selected to gain character with age; rubble stone walls, cedar roofs, limestone and oak floors provide an instant patina that will deepen over time. This unique and charming residence exudes a spirit of simplicity that reflects the lifestyle of its owners, and welcomes guests with casual grace.
