producer home

This Toronto home is also like a piece of Hollywood — and it's for sale.


And while it's also modest and charming, this modern home has more history than you might think.

The current owner, celebrated television producer Lewis Chesler, is originally a Cleveland native, but now lives in Toronto with his wife Fabi, a landscape architect and artist.

Chesler has become known as an innovative and alternative producer, in a field where breaking from the norm is not usually encouraged.

He was responsible for HBO's first true hit TV series "Hitchhiker." The producer conceived of the show, style, look, and direction, and was one of the first producers to bring Academy Award-winning talent to cable programming.

Since then, Chesler has continued to make his mark as a producer of all genres, spanning independent movies to award-winning adventure pieces.

He and his wife are selling their house near St. Clair West and Avenue Rd. and we're about to give you the full tour.
