The brief
About 197 Polly Dr
197 Polly Dr is a 4+2-bedroom, 6-bathroom detached house in Glenorchy, Oakville, listed for sale at an asking price of $3,258,000 (MLS® W13663186).
Some homes make a statement the moment you arrive. Others reveal themselves gradually, each space uncovering another layer. This remarkable residence does both. Set on a premium ravine lot backing onto mature woodland and walking trails, extensive custom stone landscaping frames both the front and rear gardens, creating an arrival that offers little hint of what awaits within. Step inside and the experience begins. A sculptural floating staircase, soaring 10-foot ceilings and expansive European windows draw your attention to the wooded ravine beyond. Scandinavian-inspired interiors, wide-plank white oak floors, dramatic slab feature walls and bespoke millwork create a calm contemporary aesthetic where architecture, craftsmanship and nature exist in perfect balance. At the heart of the home, an exceptional chef's kitchen is anchored by a dramatic natural quartzite waterfall island, beautifully crafted cabinetry, integrated appliances and thoughtful design that brings everyday living and effortless entertaining together. Upstairs, generous family accommodation gives way to a private primary retreat. A dramatic three-sided fireplace, bespoke walk-in dressing room with custom Italian cabinetry and a beautifully appointed spa-inspired ensuite create a peaceful sanctuary at the end of each day. The finished lower level expands the home's possibilities with a private theatre and recreation lounge, together with a beautifully finished legal two-bedroom secondary suite featuring its own entrance, full kitchen, separate laundry and oversized windows. Ideal for multigenerational living, extended family, guests or supplementary income, it offers exceptional flexibility without compromise. Beautifully conceived inside and out, this is a home where exceptional design serves everyday living rather than demanding attention. Some homes are admired for their finishes. Rare ones, like this, are remembered for how they make you feel.
