French Revival Opulence: Bridle Path Mansion Hits Market at $49.95M

 

                                            15 High Point Rd. in Toronto, for sale for $49.95 million.


Toronto’s famed Bridle Path — often dubbed “Millionaires’ Row” — has welcomed another jaw-dropping listing, this time a French Revival–style estate priced at an eye-watering $49.95 million.

Completed in 2007 after seven years of meticulous planning, the property is the work of hundreds of Europe’s finest artists, artisans, and designers. The mansion boasts seven bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, and a blend of hardwood, marble, and parquet flooring throughout. Its lavish amenities include both indoor and outdoor pools, a sauna, a lush garden, a library, and a concert hall designed for classical performances.

The estate’s grandeur is matched by its attention to detail — from gold-leaf ceilings to antique fixtures sourced across Europe. Despite its scale, the home is described as equally suited for intimate gatherings, with 20 parking spaces ready for larger events.

Situated on a sprawling lot in one of Canada’s most exclusive enclaves, the property offers proximity to elite schools, private clubs, and golf courses. Annual property taxes come in at $110,798 — a small sum for those in the market for one of the country’s most distinguished residences.
