Description
**Multiple Offers Received. Highest and Best, Aug 31st, by 6:30 pm** Looking for the perfectly sized, move-in ready home in a great location? Your search stops here at this fabulous bungalow. The inviting front porch welcomes you as you step into this adorable home with today's colours, trends and updates! The foyer (with deep coat closet!) leads to the east-facing sunny and airy living area, roomy enough for a large sectional to gather with all your loved ones. It opens to the bright and spacious dining area with where your guests will love to linger and the built-in buffet makes entertaining a breeze. The classic, radiant, updated kitchen is a chef's delight with quality cabinetry, sparkling granite countertops, undermount sink, stainless appliances (even a subzero wine fridge!), maple flooring, and walk-in pantry with additional storage. Large primary sunny bedroom is massive enough for a king-sized bed with room for additional furniture and features a trendy accent wall as well as a deep, wide closet. Second bedroom is bright and good sized and has a large closet too. Modern, sparkling, ample bath has built-in storage and boasts brand new plumbing, tile surround, fixture and paint. Large mudroom to shed your winter and wet layers rounds out first level. High and dry basement was finished in 2019 and boasts a huge, bright family room and a generous brand new third bedroom - lots of choices for work and learn from home needs. Basement also features three new windows, two sump pumps, backflow preventer, wine cellar, and multiple rooms for storage! Bonus walk-up attic offers more storage or can be finished at your leisure for a cozy owner's suite. Designer paint, cool fixtures and hardwood floors on first floor, new carpet in basement! Well kept exterior too - freshly painted one car garage and two paved spots. Lots of ways to enjoy the outdoor spaces of the home - host your socially distant gatherings around a fire pit on the patio, enjoy gardening or let kids and pets burn off energy in the fenced backyard, or sip wine on the cute-as-a-button front porch and catch up with neighbours as they walk by. Quiet, residential street with wonderful people and easy walk to restaurants, shopping, pool, tennis, rec centre, public transit and a hop on to the expressway. Low taxes! Everything has been done in this home - this is the one you've been waiting for. All you have to do is unpack - welcome home!
