Constructed in 2005, the single-family unit -- listed at $18,980,000 -- features eight bedrooms and nine bathrooms sprawling over 14,600 square feet of land, with the total property ar- ea of about an acre. The house is located at 1092 Argyle Dr. "It is a modern, all- stone house including slate roof built with the highest quality materials," Carlson said. The two-storied luxury mansion boasts an eleva- tor, home theatre, banquet hall, tennis court, gold wa- ter fixtures in the master bathroom, gated and heat- ed circular driveway and heated floors, among oth- ers. The master suit balco- ny overlooks the Toronto skyline. With a lakefront view from the backyard, the property offers a 2,500 square feet stone deck built directly into Lake Ontario. "This (stone deck) is a unique feature which can- not be reproduced ever again," Carlson said. "There is an expensive sea- wall in mint condition as well." A 26,000-square-foot home located on 2275 Doul- ton Dr. in Mississauga -- with seven bedrooms and 14 bathrooms -- is the most expensive house listed on the provincial market at $37.5 million, according to Carlson. The average sale price for a house in the Halton region in July was $1,322,269, according to the Oakville, Milton, and Dis- trict Real Estate Board (OMDREB). This average has come down from about $1.5 mil- lion in January. "I think that good prop- erties will hold their val- ues. It will be increasingly difficult to sell homes in run down areas, homes which are very small, on small lots and with some disadvantages like high power voltage lines near- by, noise or pollution in the area, traffic and lack of schools or low-ranking schools." While Carlson antici- pates only a slight decline in the value of the proper- ties of choice in the upcom- ing weeks, she says the land areas may continue to hold their value, if not in- crease. $19M OAKVILLE HOME AMONG MOST EXPENSIVE ON ONTARIO MARKET REETI ROHILLA rrohilla@metroland.com NEWS HOME FEATURES ELEVATOR, HOME THEATRE AND BANQUET HALL Left: This Oakville home is listed at $18,980,000.
