1.
This may look like an ordinary home in Toronto, Canada. -
2.
But as soon as you enter the foyer, you're transported right back to the 1950s. -
3.
The living room is perfectly decorated with velveteen couches. -
4.
Not to mention the pastel carpeting and floors. -

This lovely time capsule home is owned by 96-year-old resident in western Toronto. -

The home was built in 1940, and she has lived in it for 72 of those 76 years. -

"I've always tried to be individual, and follow my own style", says the homeowner. -
8.
"I like soft colours and I like things to match and flow well together", she said, adding, "I prefer tone-on-tone to bright colours". -
9.
She based the design around her favorite colors: pink, purple, seafoam, and teal. -
10.
The house is now on the market as the homeowner will be moving into a retirement community. -
11.
She says she'll bring some of her most valued possessions with her, but much of the period decor will be dispersed between her children. -
12.
Most rooms have stayed completely untouched since their original design (as evident by the tiny tile and gold accents) -

14.
The panelled basement and wet bar also still remain, perfect for hosting an "American Hustle"-style party. -

Hopefully the new owners will appreciate this amazing foray into design history as much as its previous resident!
