House of the week: 20B Senlac Road

One of three modern eco homes by Atria Developments, 20B Senlac Road is new to market near the revamped Yonge and Sheppard intersection. Asking $2,280,000, this contemporary four bedroom will, unoubtedly, attract the environmentally-aware buyer who wants to wake up to a Juliette balcony overlooking a Muskoka-style wooded ravine.

In North York, properties like this modern rebuild are a dime a dozen. Post-war bungalows are selling like hot cakes, soaring past the million dollar mark and replaced by expansive custom three-level homes. The area has undergone significant changes and redevelopment in recent years, new high-rises and even an upscale Whole Foods making its way to the neighbourhood.

The Senlac property features a rectangular and glass facade along with an open and sparse interior. Essentially, it's a blank slate -- add some art to those white walls and make it your own. The Scavolini Kitchen offers ample counter space, a wine fridge, and a separate built-in beverage bar.

Upstairs, the master and laundry room are on the same level -- a major plus on laundry day -- and the third floor features a small loft space with floor-to-ceiling windows. There's also a cedar rooftop deck with rough-in for a hot tub.
