The ivy covered residence at 412 Russell Hill Road was custom built for CNIB founder Edwin A. Baker and his wife in 1925. It’s currently listed with Jimmy Molloy for $5,500,000.
The Details
Despite the epic exterior, the 6 bedroom, 5 bathroom has a slightly dated interior. The good news is you’ll probably get to go ham on the decorating budget, the bad news is this is a $5.5M home – so you’ll need even deeper pockets. Some of the nicer features you might want to keep are 3 wood burning fireplaces, classic wainscoting, and the mature gardens that surround the house. The one feature that’s probably going to go for sure is that walk-in closet.
…5 million is a lot. I wouldn’t expect to have to tear everything out and renovate it after.
