Toronto realtors often gush about their listings, touting soaring ceilings or fancy bells and whistles because, duh, they're trying to sell the house. But it's not often I hear a realtor talk about a house with sheer reverence.

"It's a wonderful old house," he told blogTO. "It will speak to you when you walk in. You can see exactly where put the Christmas tree and sang carols by the fireplace." Built in 1913, this Georgian-style family home has been cherished by the same owners since 1967, the Herridge family. The home has since been lovingly dubbed the Herridge House, named after the late owner, Mr. Herridge, who was a notable figure in the community.

This enchanting staircase, a hallmark of early 20th-century architecture, spans all three floors, including a third-floor space where there used to be a billiards room.As Warren explains, back in the day the "gentleman" would "alight" to the third floor after dinner, while the women would sit in the drawing room.

The servant stairs are also still there in the house, as well as the pocket doors to all the principal rooms, so that you could keep heat in the respective rooms in the winter. The principal rooms, including the living room, formal dining room, and cozy library, provide ample space for family gatherings and entertaining.For example, there's wool broadloom everywhere, which, while a sign of when hardwood fell out of fashion, is no longer something people want in their homes.
