105 Bayswater Ave

It?s been called the Tesla of homes? environmentally responsible yet aesthetically beautiful. Built to passive house standards, this home is ultra green while exhibiting an elevated sense of style that?s both contemporary and timeless. Designed and built by architect and energy adviser Mark Rosen, it?s one of just a handful of its kind in Ontario. It is especially unique in its urban setting, where building to the passive house standard is even more challenging. The furnace ?the size of a shoe box? uses as much power as two hair dryers. An open central core inspired by Moroccan inner courtyards is filled with light and greenery through three storeys. It also boasts a full in-law suite in the walkout basement, a sunken tub in the master ensuite, a third-floor getaway, an Astro Design kitchen and Gaulhofer triple-glazed windows. The home is roughed in for grey water and is super insulated. Everything about it speaks to comfort, from the environment to the finishes to the layout.
