A stunning, two-tone modern exterior is the start of a beautiful, luxury interior in this brand new semi-detached infill in the heart of Altadore!
Four bedrooms across 2,797 square feet of living space, with wide-plank engineered hardwood flooring on the main and upper floors, makes this home perfect for growing families, only enhanced by the close proximity to schools, parks, and amenities.
The fantastic curb appeal is met with plenty of natural light from the numerous windows on the front of the home and as you enter into the front foyer and formal dining room. The large, extensively upgraded central kitchen will soon become the heart of the home, as there’s plenty of room to host your kids, their friends, and your family (with room to spare) on the oversized 14’ kitchen island/nook table combo. The island side features waterfall quartz countertops, an under-mount stainless steel sink, and bar seating. Storage isn’t a problem either, with plenty of cabinets with soft-close hardware and a built-in pantry that utilizes the extra space under the stairs. The kitchen also features a premium stainless steel appliance package that includes a refrigerator, gas cooktop, built-in hood fan, built-in oven/microwave, and dishwasher.
The entire main floor of the home is drenched in sun all day long by 8-foot sliding glass doors, creating a bright, airy living room while also giving you access to the impressive South-facing backyard, including the fully built back deck, where you’ll find a gas line for a BBQ. The focal point of the room is the remote-controlled gas fireplace with stone detailing and custom millwork. A spacious mudroom is discreetly placed behind the fireplace and has dual closets, built-in cabinets, and a bench and hooks, too. The powder room is found off the mudroom, an excellent location for some added privacy, away from the main living space, and has a lovely linear mirror, quartz countertops, and an under-mount sink.
Upstairs, two skylights and wide-plank engineered hardwood floors continue the home’s spacious and bright atmosphere. But the real show stopper is the luxurious primary quarters! Vaulted ceilings meet enormous west-facing windows, two separate (and sizeable) walk-in closets have custom built-in shelving, and a 3’ wide entrance with a sliding barn door makes for a grand opening into the luxurious ensuite. In the primary bath, you’ll find more vaulted ceilings, a beautiful freestanding soaker tub, heated tile floors, a vast rough-in steam shower with full-height tile, rain showerhead, and a bench, a modern dual vanity, and a private water closet.
The main bathroom, shared by the secondary bedrooms, also offers a dual vanity and private area for the shower/tub with full-height tile details and a water closet, perfect for siblings to share at bedtime – one can bath while the other brushes their teeth! The upstairs laundry room is across from the main bath, complete with a sink, tiled floors, built-in cabinetry, and quartz countertops.
Downstairs, the large entertainment room feels even bigger with the view you get through the open glass railings on the staircase. Built-in media unit (roughed-in for a projector, screen and sound system) and a full wet bar with custom built-in cabinetry, sink, and bar fridge make hosting hockey nights and games with friends convenient and fun. A separate home office/gym space features a wide 4’ entryway with a modern barn door, making the room open and spacious. The fourth bedroom is perfect for teens or a guest bedroom, with a sizeable walk-in closet and direct access to the full downstairs bathroom, which has tiled flooring and a tiled tub surround.
Other upgrades of this home include rough-ins for the following: VacuFlo (including foot pan in kitchen), in-floor heat in basement, air conditioning, security system, gas line for garage heater, and electric car wiring for a docking station.
