The house is a unique and representative example of the Tudor Revival style, with craftsman elements. 22 Lytton Boulevard represents the first wave of development within the Alexandra Gardens Subdivision, which was registered by Edward Bentley Stockdale in 1910 and included Lytton Boulevard, Alexandra Boulevard and Strathallan Boulevard, west of Yonge Street. It is one of the few surviving pre-World War I houses within the subdivision and the larger Lytton Park Neighbourhood, and along with nearby properties on the Heritage Register, including the Snider House at 744 Duplex Avenue and the Webster house at 42 Lytton Boulevard, the property at 22 Lytton Boulevard plays a significant role in supporting and maintaining the character of the area. A Committee of Adjustment application was submitted for this property on August 8th proposing demolition of the existing house and a replacement structure. Properties on the Heritage Register will be conserved and maintained in accordance with the Official Plan Heritage Policies.
