123 Forest Heights Blvd. Toronto

This $9 million Toronto home was built by a famous architect

Sometimes modern houses can feel boring, cold, uninviting, and just a bit blah, leaning more towards "untouchable art gallery" vibes rather than an actual home you'd want to live in. 

However, 123 Forest Heights Blvd. is an ultra modern home that manages to be feel like a place you might actually enjoy living in.123 Forest Heights Blvd. Toronto

The kitchen, breakfast area, and family room. 

Designed by famed architect Michael Lafrenière, the four-bedroom, five-bathroom home feels very zen with clean lines and open-concept living spaces.

The dining room features built-in cabinetry and a walk-out to the backyard. 

The home is bright, thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows and abundance of skylights, and is filled with charm and character.

The library with a fireplace. 

Possibly the most stunning space in the house is the library with vaulted two-storey ceilings, floor-to-ceiling built-in walnut shelving and cabinetry, and panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows.
