A lasting first impression!

Step inside, and it’s immediately clear—this is no quick flip. This is a brand-new top to bottom, quality renovation, designed with intention. The moment you walk through the door, your eye is drawn straight through to the bright and airy kitchen, thanks to oversized, low-profile windows that flood the entire home with natural light.

The wide staircase and rich, warm-toned hardwood floors set the stage for a home that feels both timeless and contemporary.

And unlike the open-concept craze that leaves homes feeling like glorified bowling alleys, this layout understands the beauty of balance—open enough for flow, yet offering just the right amount of separation for a functional and comfortable family home.

A living & dining space made for making memories

The formal living room is a statement space. It can be as grand or as casual as your lifestyle demands, but one thing is certain—it’s stunning. A mid-century modern fireplace serves as the focal point, creating a cozy yet sophisticated ambiance. The 8-foot bay window? That’s where the magic happens. Sunlight streams in, making this the ultimate spot to curl up with a book or gather with friends and family.

Flowing seamlessly into the formal dining area, this home is made for hosting. Whether it’s an elegant dinner party or a chaotic weeknight meal, this space adapts to whatever life throws your way.

Finally, the kitchen of your dreams is here!

And then, we arrive at the kitchen—a true showstopper. Thoughtfully designed for both form and function, this space is equal parts stunning and practical. A family-sized kitchen with casual dining space, a massive island (hello, extra seating!), and high-end appliances make this a dream for home chefs.

French doors lead directly to the backyard, so whether you’re sipping your morning coffee or keeping an eye on the kids, you’ll always feel connected to the outdoors.

And speaking of coffee, the separate coffee station and bar area (complete with a beverage and wine fridge) ensure that mornings start right, and evenings end even better. Storage? Absolutely. This kitchen is packed with thoughtful details—an appliance garage, pot filler, oversized pantry, and custom floating shelves make organization effortless. And all of this while you enjoy sweeping views of your own private ravine-like backyard.

A bright & family-friendly second floor awaits!

Head upstairs to discover a family-sized second floor, thoughtfully designed for comfort and function. Two large kids’ bedrooms offer plenty of space to grow, each featuring oversized windows that frame peaceful neighbourhood views, roomy closets, and actual space to roam—no cramped corners here.

A shared family bathroom and the ultimate convenience—second-floor laundry—make daily life just that much easier.

Luxury primary suite, ready to impress!

And then, there’s the primary suite—a true sanctuary that is anything but ordinary. Spacious enough for a king-sized bed, this bright and airy retreat boasts soaring vaulted ceilings and an elegant, serene atmosphere. The real showstopper? The ensuite.

This spa-like escape is straight out of a magazine, featuring a double vanity, a massive walk-in shower, and a separate soaker tub that practically begs for a long, relaxing bath. The statement tile? Absolutely stunning.

And because no dreamy retreat is complete without the perfect view, a huge window overlooking the backyard floods this blissful space with golden sunlight. It’s the kind of primary suite that makes mornings brighter, evenings cozier, and weekends in feel like a five-star getaway.

The lower level you won't want to leave...

Most basements are, well… basements. But not this one. This fully underpinned lower level is next-level luxurious, with radiant heated floors and a trendy polished concrete finish, that makes it the coziest place in the house. The space is huge, bright, and versatile—perfect for everything from movie nights to play areas to home workouts.

A spacious open-concept layout featuring five oversized above-grade windows—yes, you read that right, above grade! Flooding the space with natural light, this is a lower level that feels anything but.

Need a quiet spot to work? A tucked-away office space gives you the privacy you need without sacrificing style. This is a basement that feels like an extension of the main living space, not an afterthought.
