Why has one of the most unique properties in downtown Toronto been sitting on the market for nearly two years?
Known as the William Britton House, the 1885 landmark offers almost 6,500 square feet of space in one of the city's most coveted neighbourhoods with endless options for transformation.
Designed by Dr. William Britton, a well-respected physician and former president of the Ontario Medical Association, the home was both his residence and private practice.
Incredibly forward-thinking for the time, he even incorporated extra-wide doorways to make the house accessible to patients in wheelchairs.
For someone bold enough to take it on, the William Britton House could be a crown jewel.
