If you have $32 million burning a hole in your pocket, you may be interested in Toronto's latest Bridle Path mega-mansion listing. The estate hit the market on Wednesday with a $32,570,000 asking price, making it one of the most expensive publicly listed properties in Toronto, second only to a $34.5 million home near Casa Loma.
This is the first time the over two-acre property has been publicly listed since it last sold in August 2020 for $13.5 million — less than half its current asking price. The property had been listed at $17.9 million in February of that year, before selling for nearly $4.5 million under asking.
Five years and one housing boom later, this sprawling estate is priced higher than ever — though it does have a few perks to back up the lofty price tag.
Located at 8 High Point Road West in the Bridle Path — also known as 'Millionaire's Row' — the property is located in arguably Toronto's most-coveted neighbourhood. The Bridle Path has earned its clout for its massive multimillion-dollar mansions and the celebrity they've attracted over the years, with current and past residents including Prince, Mick Jagger, Drake, and his neighbour Gordon Lightfoot.
In addition to the neighbourhood's highfalutin reputation, the surrounding area offers a number of amenities and conveniences including the nearby Crescent School for boys, the exclusive Granite Club, and the lush Glendon Park.
The home itself is truly a sight to see. Beyond ornate double wrought-iron gates lies a seven-plus-two-bedroom, 16-bathroom (yes, 16 bathrooms) palatial abode fit for royalty. And in the way of amenities, it's got everything a prospective buyer could ask for: a home theatre, a spa and steam room, a home gym, an indoor pool, and an outdoor sports court equipped for basketball and tennis.

Throughout the home, classical architecture blends with modern luxuries to create an environment of refined grandeur. Starting outside, residents and visitors are welcomed by a circular stone driveway crowned with a large illuminated fountain, while the limestone facade stuns with Corinthian columns that give the home its made-for-royalty feel.
Inside, you're greeted by a curving grand staircase and pristine white marble slab flooring, which covers much of the main floor. As you move through the home, you'll come across regal sitting and dining rooms with soaring ceilings, a state-of-the-art kitchen, and an expansive primary suite decked out with a heavenly white and gold ensuite.
Our Favourite Thing
Our favourite thing is the sheer number of amenities available to residents at this home. From everyday practicalities like the home gym, to creature comforts of the highest level — see: indoor pool, sports court, and a home theatre that looks better equipped than some Cineplexes. With this address, you truly get what you pay for.
Artistic design flourishes also fill the nooks and crannies of the home, including an ornamented dome overlooking the main foyer that could have been snatched from a European cathedral and an enchanting wall mural by the lower level wet bar and wine cellar. Finally, out back, you'll find a meticulously landscaped backyard featuring an indoor pool house, an outdoor kitchen, and a sports court.
Boasting one of the most sought-after addresses in the city, and offering unrivalled luxury and style, this Bridle Path listing will undoubtedly turn some heads, if not for its price tag alone.
