Home of the Week: A $6.489 million mansion overlooking the ravine in Forest Hill

The property at 8 Russell Hill Dr. is a serious showstopper. The three-storey mansion is listed for $6.489 million and has more than its fair share of grand rooms and luxurious details. And it’s also sitting on a prime piece of land, overlooking the nearby ravine. Positioned on a semi-private road with only two houses, it’s super secluded, especially considering its located in the middle of midtown Toronto.

Designed by Joe Brennan, the six-bedroom, seven-bathroom home comes equipped with a library, rec room and high-end finishes. The elegant designs are evident as soon as you walk in, with dark marble flooring and warm wallpapered walls in the foyer.
