A five-bedroom, three-bathroom “bungaloft” in Port Stanley’s Kokomo Beach Club.
The Details
We know what you might be asking: What is a “bungaloft?” Remember that old Simpsons episode about the monorail, where salesman Lyle Lanley explains that “mono means one, and rail means rail?” Same concept, pretty much: “bunga” means bungalow, and “loft” means…
You get the picture. What you’re getting in this newly constructed five-bed, three-bath home is an outstanding example of the newish bungaloft concept more homebuilders rolling out these days, where the layout is mostly bungalow ― but with a second level that, in this property, offers a couple of extra bedrooms ideal for visitors, growing families or grandbabies. It can also be a perfect fit as a home office for the buyer who prefers to work from the sanctuary of home, without their professional life taking over their main living space.
The home itself is a 2,000-plus square-foot home in Port Stanley’s new Kokomo Beach Club ― a lifestyle community with a beachy vibe, located just a few minutes away from the town’s iconic beach.
You aren’t getting shortchanged on the bungalow part of the house here. The main floor offers all the convenience of bungalow living, with a big, open-concept layout, a large kitchen and living room and a spacious primary suite on the main floor. The main living area features luxurious hardwood-style flooring throughout much of the space, while the primary suite and second main-floor bedroom (also ideal for a home office) are carpeted. The primary suite itself comes with a walk-in closet and its own bathroom with a marble-tiled walk-in shower.
The kitchen is a great space for hosting, with a large central island, crisp white tiled backsplash and new stainless-steel appliances. It features a double sink, and space for a family-sized dining table with sliding doors leading out to the backyard.
Upstairs ― the “loft” portion of bungaloft ― you get three additional rooms, perfect for use as bedrooms, but equally flexible for whatever you need to use them for. It’s also got access to a charming balcony overlooking the front yard. Two of the bedrooms on this level have walk-in closets, and there is also a shared bathroom with a shower-tub combo.
The home is also located on a large, corner lot, with lots of newly planted grass for kids to run around. Cladded in James Hardie Board Siding in a custom coastal hue, there’s also a sizeable two-car garage, and the backyard is also yours to customize ― a deck, a hot tub, gardens, you name it.
And of course, don’t forget that this place comes with an added bonus in the form of membership in the Kokomo Beach Club, which affords the buyer exclusive access to a pool, fitness centre, pickleball courts and easy access to nature trails in the area. It’s a small-town walkers’ paradise ― you can easily stroll to all the shops, restaurants and cafés (not to mention the beach) that make Port Stanley such an attractive place to live.
