Set on an exceptional oversized lot with coveted 75’ frontage and a sun-drenched west-facing backyard, this is a home where children can walk to social activities, swimming, skating, or tennis lessons at the Club. This is a home for generations to gather for the holidays, celebrations, and everyday living. Rich in warmth and architectural authenticity, the home was masterfully built in 1993 to reflect and respect the historic charm of Elbow Park, showcasing timeless design through its classic center hall plan, gabled rooflines, wrap-around veranda, and signature hexagonal tower feature.
