Real Life House Tour: Stefania & Ben's Vintage Chic Toronto Home

Stefania and Ben are some of our most favourite people in the whole world. You saw a glimpse of them here, when I showed you the antique market we went to with them. Today, you get to take a peek around their whole home! Their place is full of treasures that they've collected together and is always a warm, relaxing place to hang out. Come on in!

 I'll kick off the tour in the kitchen...

This lovely chair belonged to Stefania's grandfather.

I love this side of the kitchen. It is so inviting. 

I think they've done a beautiful job of mixing antiques & vintage finds into the sleek, modern kitchen. 

And check out their awesome back stairway/storage/laundry area off the kitchen.

On to the living room. This is the room that greets you when you enter their apartment. 

The light fixture was a recent purchase, a beautiful amber yellow antique glass fixture.

 (In the pic above, you can see Ben with my baby Ben. For some reason, I have no better photos of the beautiful couch). 

 I love the exposed brick. LOVE it. 

 And you might have noticed the big brass walnut on the table above. It is actually a nutcracker. Stefania bought it here. Isn't it awesome?

And up next, the amazing bathroom. The grey tiles are so well done, and I love how bright the in-shower lighting is. This would be a great place to get ready in the morning...

Across from the bathroom in the hallway is this amazing antique trunk/box thing, where they store their extra TP. Talk about beautiful storage...

And finally, the serene bedroom. I love the grand scale of the headboard.

 Another great dresser with original hardware:

 More beautiful storage and display

 And my favourite thing in the whole apartment, these gorgeous antique bedside table lamps. Stefania and Ben found them in an antique shop and updated them with new shades (I love that they went dark). Photos don't do them justice, but aren't these amazing statement pieces for the room?

SZ and Ben, thanks for letting me show off your casa today!! You guys are the best.

Isn't this an amazing home?

I'll be back soon with some more trip photos (you can see our visit to NYC, but may continue to be a bit absent from blogging as I'm getting lost in the pre-Christmas frenzy).
