This $ 7 million Vaughan mansion looks like an opera house
If you live for a spectacular entrance, this could be the home for you.
Located in the heart of Vaughan, 71 Grandvista Crescent is one of those mansions you imagine living a reality TV star in.
The kitchen is equipped with Miele appliances.
Sitting on an acre lot, the house is massive, extravagant and over the top … I mean the house has three furnaces and three air conditioning units.
The intricate tile in the main entrance.
But probably the most spectacular part of the house is the foyer.

When you first enter this home, you are greeted by a 30 foot ceiling and surrounded by Juliet balconies.
The crystal chandelier in the main entrance.
It also has an impressive chandelier hanging from a ceiling painted in gold. The whole aesthetic reminds me of an opera or a theater.
The master bedroom has a walk-in closet and a six-piece bathroom.
In addition to the spectacular entrance, the home features seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, and over 11,000 square feet of living space.
The living room with a stone fireplace.
The style throughout the house is heavily adorned with things like whimsical draperies, carved wood cabinets and fireplaces, and even coffered ceilings with wallpaper.
The dining room has a Juliet balcony.
It’s definitely a distinct style that might not be to everyone’s liking.
The commercial kitchen in the basement with a walk-out to the backyard.
The real estate agent notes that the house is an “artist’s dream”, especially with the additional commercial kitchen in the basement.
The wine cellar.
Other luxury features of this home are the outdoor saltwater swimming pool, heated floor, temperature controlled wine cellar and elevator.
The inground salt pool.
And while the interior of the house is very elaborate, the backyard is quite underwhelming.
An aerial view of the property shows the Diamond Pond Nature Reserve at the rear of the property.
It comes back to a conservation area / ravine, so you’d expect it to be lush and oasis-like, it’s very utilitarian.
The balcony at the front of the house.
The house is currently listed at $ 7,380,000, but strangely, it was listed just a few days ago at $ 6,980,000 and was taken down after a day.
