This newly built house in Toronto’s Lytton Park may be the freshest face on the block, but it looks right at home. The Georgian-inspired three-story is in keeping with the classic styles of existing houses in the community.
Once farmland and a rural suburb of Toronto, the neighborhood was originally made up of mostly Georgian and Tudor-style homes, many of which date from around 1890 to 1930. During the period from 1920 to 1945 local architectural tastes expanded to include American Foursquare, Victorian and Colonial designs.
A central foyer and inlaid floors set the tone for the rest of the house.

The exclusive area known as Lytton Park, with its tree-lined streets, large lots and manicured gardens, takes its name from an actual park – a sunken garden with winding staircases, balcony overlooks and mature maple, elm and spruce trees.
The custom mansion by the Canada-based design-build group Nuvo Homes, in collaboration with architect Stan Makow and Sachiko Designs, sits on a corner lot near the end of a cul-de-sac.
