Overlooking Lake Victoria, Tower House has a rare location in downtown Stratford which enjoys the beauty of the famed park system, just steps from the theatres, shops, cafes and restaurants that the city is noted for. This extraordinary building was designed by acclaimed architects Shim-Sutcliffe and completed in 2001 and shows the influences of master architects Tadeo Ando, Carlo Scarpa and Alvar Aalto. The exterior is a precise composition rendered in concrete, cementitious panels, steel and fir windows frames. With a central atrium, meticulous fir and cedar detailing, two bedrooms, two and a half baths lined in French limestone, a stainless-steel professional kitchen and a wood burning fireplace, Tower House is truly a rare work of architecture and craftsmanship. From Cobourg Street, the striking wooden ramp takes you to the main level where the foyer soars thirty feet in a fir lined atrium to a skylit ceiling. A powder room is hidden behind a custom wooden door. The living room with its 12’ foot ceiling has exceptional views of the Lake Victoria and a custom wood burning fireplace. The lower level opens to grade and includes a stainless-steel kitchen with 16’ ceilings, views to the Japanese lily pond and a spacious dining room with direct access to the parking space and a bespoke sliding china cabinet. The second level has a bedroom complete with custom integral bed frame, nightstands and rolling table and a 3 piece ensuite lined with French limestone. The upper level has the main bedroom, reached by a meticulously detailed bridge, has views of the lake, integral custom bed frame and nightstands, ample custom cabinetry and a 4 piece bath lined with limestone and a stacked washer dryer. Its current use is a boutique inn - listed exclusively with Tablet Hotels and the Michelin Guide - while the special C3-11 zoning allows for a full range of commercial and residential uses (id:58067)
