The Details
Buyers looking for a newly built home with contemporary stylings, plenty of space and the potential to customize will want to take a close look at this 2,350-square-foot, four-bed three-bath home in the city’s north-west corner. Built by Birchwood Homes, this property is only two years old, so it’s a home that will feel ― and look ― brand new.
Inside, the home embraces a clean, bright and modern design. As you enter the foyer, you are greeted by a nine-foot ceiling height throughout the main floor. As you move beyond the foyer, you’ll enter the main living area of the house, an open-concept design that covers the kitchen, a large living room and a dining room, and which has a patio door that accesses the back deck. The living room centres around an impressive white stone mantle with a contemporary fireplace underneath the television hookup, perfect for family nights in.
The kitchen offers loads of workspace, with a large island with bar seating and the kitchen’s sink serving as the central point of the kitchen. The countertops are stone, while the backsplash features classic, white subways. The kitchen also features modern Shaker-style white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances (fridge, dishwasher, stove), and a small pantry closet tucked in the corner that will make storage a breeze.
Upstairs are the home’s four bedrooms. The primary suite is large, well-lit and includes both a large walk-in closet as well as a sizeable ensuite bathroom featuring a soaking tub, double vanity and walk-in shower. (It, too, carries on the white-and-stone design motif seen on the main level.) The three other bedrooms are all spacious, carpeted and include lots of closet space; one or more of them would be perfect candidates for conversion to home office use, depending on your needs. The upstairs is also home to the full laundry room, which includes a washing sink.
Depending on your vision for the property, the unfinished basement will give renovation-minded buyers a lot to work with. It has two large egress windows that allow for bedroom space if additional sleeping space or a lower-level suite are on the wish list, or there is plenty of room and possibilities for a media room, home gym, kids’ hangout or office space.
Out back, you’ll find a quiet suburban backyard. There’s direct access from the main living room to the stone patio, which has small built-in garden beds as well as greenspace. It’s semi-private, with a backyard fence that surrounds this house and the one next door. And at only two years old, the home is still covered by the original Tarion Warranty program. It’s a great option for families looking for a new-build to customize and make their own, in a growing and family-friendly part of the city.
