Description & details

OPEN HOUSE SAT. OCT 17 2-4PM. Love clean lines, architectural details & a home with personality? This one deserves your attention. Extensively remodelled inside & out, this distinctive home blends modern curb appeal, loft-inspired interiors & luxurious finishes in an exceptional urban location. Inside, the open-concept main floor feels more like a contemporary loft than a traditional home, with abundant natural light, maple hardwood flooring, potlights & a striking custom steel open-riser staircase. The kitchen makes a statement with butcher-block counters, stainless steel appl's, Blanco sinks & a Caesarstone waterfall island with breakfast bar. A walk-in pantry keeps everything organized, while the walkout to the spacious deck & pergola creates an effortless connection between indoor living and outdoor entertaining. Upstairs, the primary retreat offers elevated ceilings, double closets and a private terrace overlooking the park. The luxurious five-piece ensuite, complete with a custom vanity, porcelain tile, a stylish soaker tub & walk-in shower, adds a little everyday indulgence. A 2nd bedroom & 3pc bathroom provide flexibility for guests or a home office. The finished lower level extends the living space with a third bedroom, its own three-piece ensuite and generous storage. Outside, low-maintenance Distinction Wood Grain steel siding, a double-wide driveway, EV charger & a single garage w/ plenty of storage continue the home's contemporary appeal. And then there's the lifestyle. Step outside & you're moments from the Iron Horse Trail, perfect for morning walks, cycling & getting some fresh air without ever needing the car. The LRT, shops, cafés & restaurants are close by, while downtown & hwy's are just minutes away. It's a location that makes it easy to embrace an active, connected, urban lifestyle while enjoying the comfort of a home that feels like your own private retreat. For buyers who want something beyond the ordinary, this is a home that stands apart.

The data only goes so far — condition, light and layout are worth seeing in person, with a home inspection, before you commit.
