Toronto's home to plenty of nice houses, but there's an upper echelon out there that are really envy-worthy. Such is the case with421 The Kingsway, a stunning contemporary mansion that overlooks the exclusive St. Georges Golf and Country Club in Etobicoke.

While you won't find an indoor pool or in-house movie theatre at this house, it's got pretty much everything else. From fireplaces in nearly every important room to an enormous open concept kitchen to multiple terraces and decks, this is luxury and high design rolled into one.

The house was actually built in 2002 to designs by Toronto-basedAltius Architecture. In aprevious iterationit looked a bit quirky with hyper-modern furnishings and touches of purple all over the place, but the staging here reveals a more reserved touch, which is a far better fit.
