Toronto real estate has no shortage of glassy new builds and cookie-cutter flips, but every so often, a house comes along that feels like it belongs in both an architectural magazine and a fever dream.
Enter 38 Purdon Dr., a ravine-side 1960s modernist with cathedral ceilings, a sunroom bar that literally glows, and a backyard waterfall fed by rainwater.
The façade glows pink at night, with what can only be described as dinosaur-egg decals on its exterior.
38 Purdon Dr. also has a sauna, whirlpool tub with mood lighting, a garage built to handle SUV hoists, and a driveway that fits nine cars.
The house sits on a massive 60-by-200-foot ravine lot, with a back gate leading directly to Dufferin Creek and a protected TRCA trail system.
