Designed with the perfect blend of entertaining, personal, and family oriented zones in mind, the gourmet kitchen, luxurious owner’s suite, and fully finished lower level make this home unforgettable. Recent upgrades include new HVAC systems (August 2024), a new refrigerator (December 2023), and a new dishwasher and hot water heater (2022) create instant appeal. ****** An open foyer welcomes you home and ushers you up into the formal living room featuring a floor to ceiling arched window that fills the space with natural light and onward to the formal dining room accented by wainscoting. A serving buffet introduces the gourmet kitchen that is a feast for the eyes featuring earth-toned granite countertops and custom backsplashes, an abundance of warm wood custom cabinetry with under cabinet lighting, and stainless steel appliances including a built-in microwave and double wall ovens. A center island with gas cooktop provides bar seating, while the breakfast area with graceful bay window area is the ideal spot for daily dining. Steps away, the family room invites you to relax in front of a cozy gas fireplace flanked by built-in shelving or step out to the large Trex deck overlooking the grassy backyard, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living and entertaining. A main level office and chic powder room complement the main level. ****** Upstairs, the owner’s suite is your own private retreat boasting a deep tray ceiling with designer chandelier, plush carpeting, two large walk-in closets, and luxurious bath featuring a dual sink vanity, make-up vanity, water closet, soaking tub, and frameless glass enclosed shower. Down the hall, a sunny junior suite enjoys a private bath, and two additional bright and spacious bedrooms share a dual-entry bath with a separate dual-sink vanity area, while a bedroom level laundry with modern front-loading machines eases the daily task. ****** The fully finished lower level has space for a multitude of activities featuring a recreation room and billiards area, and plenty of space to relax and unwind. A versatile bonus room with a walk-in closet (leading to a huge unfinished storage area) and full bath can serve as a perfect guest suite. A Ring doorbell, extra long driveway with parking for 4 cars, designated visitor parking across the way, and as a bonus, the pool table, bar furniture, and piano that conveys completes the luxury and comfort of this fabulous home. All this in a peaceful residential setting in a stellar location where everyone will enjoy the abundance of shopping, dining, and entertainment choices, parklands, easy access to major commuting routes and Metro!
