The massive semi-detached mansion at 118-120 Bedford Road in the Annex was built in 1897.

The Bedford Mansion is in a truly prime Annex location, and example of a stunning Victorian restoration.

The Old Town of Yorkville and now the Annex neighbourhood are known for many other grand Annex homes, it is noteworthy for its fine architectural detail of brick, stone, terra cotta, stained glass windows and ornate wood trim.
