Property Description
A Love Story For The Ages
A true Victorian in the heart of Roncy. We say this a lot, but this is indeed a rare find. A lovingly restored Victorian home, full of charm and original statement pieces, yet renovated with all modern amenities and mechanics. Meticulously restored inside and out, semi-detached, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a separate, legal 1 bedroom basement apartment with a private walkout. Designed by a renovation powerhouse of a designer and a contractor, a home like this only comes along once in a lifetime.
Let’s fall in love, shall we?
It will be love at first sight before you even cross the threshold. Restored brickwork and glass with black accents and powder coated railings hint at the quality that lies within. Step through the Old World front door into 125 Fermanagh. No expense was spared in the restoration of this Victorian home. From arched entryways, gabled roofs, decorative bricks on the outside, to stained glass transom windows, original fireplace tile, restored box bay windows on the inside, this home is a joy to experience. In addition to the preserved character details, 125 Fermanagh also incorporates clean lines and modern design elements that blend in seamlessly. A custom white herringbone oak floor, radiant heating in all floors and perhaps the most important update, a custom kitchen with a large island, panelled appliances and beautiful custom built cabinetry.
Tall, dark and Victorian.. yet bright and inviting!
The impressive 9’6” ceilings invite you in to the modern, elegant main floor. A large entryway with full-size closet and standout feature floor make the first impression. Follow the archway into a refined, open concept space, ideal for entertaining. This is a room where old meets new with a statement fireplace, original stained glass window and contemporary design elements come together. Including a stylish, convenient two piece powder room right the main floor. No expense was spared on the high end finishes, paint quality and high tech mechanics of this house. With multi-zone thermostats, radiant heating in all floors, including the basement. This home has the classic looks of a century home with the tech upgrades of the 21st century. With a CAT-6E network throughout, 125 Fermanagh is hardwired for internet, speakers and security cameras inside and out. This truly is the best of both worlds.
A kitchen that speaks your love language
Like everything else in this home, the kitchen is also completely custom and brand new. With a large island featuring a butcher block top and quartz countertops throughout, prep space and storage is never an issue. A farmhouse style ceramic sink ensures ample space for washing up, filling large pots, and soaking fresh veggies. With panelled appliances and custom cabinetry, the Victorian style and charm is maintained yet it is a modern, functional kitchen full of incredible features. Perfect for every master chef in the making. The kitchen opens into a lovely dining room all over looked by the gorgeous, original stained glass feature above the main window.
Living spaces designed for living
Conveniently and quietly located at the back for the house, the living room features direct access to the backyard. Oversized custom French doors open to a manicured, private yard with a newly finished deck, high quality Astroturf, multiple entertaining spaces and even plenty of room for a fire pit. The perfect space to enjoy quiet summer nights by the fire. A warm and inviting south facing living room with built-in shelves make for easy customization and interior design options. This elegant room is made for relaxation. On warm summer nights, easily throw open the French doors and bring the outdoors in, turn the backyard into an extension of the fabulous living room,
A sunny upstairs will have you swooning
Follow the unique staircase up to yet another stylish, expertly restored and perfectly curated second sun-filled story. Again, the same attention to detail can be seen upstairs as this entire home has had a very thoughtful and deliberate restoration. Three beautiful bedrooms await, each with ample closet space. The spacious primary bedroom features a gorgeous bay window with built in seating and a stunning original stained glass transom window. Victorian charm meets modern needs in this room as there is also a large double closet as well as a unique nook, the perfect spot to work from home. The primary bedroom also features a pull down ladder for easy access to a large, finished attic space, the perfect storage area for all your extras. More of that well thought out design and functionality. The second floor also features the gorgeous large bathroom with a custom soapstone double vanity, plenty of light, a bathtub and shower as well as a washer dryer.
A bonus space like no other!
The lower level features a fully separate legal basement apartment, featuring a separate and large private entry directly off the street. This executive apartment is also brand new and renovated with the highest quality, just like the rest of this home. This is a multi-functional space with plenty of options for a great private office, full time rental or long term Airbnb rental. With 8 foot ceilings, polished concrete floors with radiant heat, separate electrical panel and water heater, this basement apartment is a good as it gets. This suite also has a bright and crisp kitchen, beautiful bathroom, separate bedroom and private laundry. Like the rest of this home, no expense was spared and the basement has been finished with top of the line sound proofing with the highest residential acoustic treatment available. This is as soundproof as it gets!
