The Place

A four-bedroom, three-bathroom family home in Westmount.

The Details

If you’re in the market for a house to call family home, this four-bed, three-bath two storey on Farnham Road likely fits the bill. Set against the backdrop of the Southwest Optimist Park (onto which the house backs), this house serves up plenty of curb appeal: modern charcoal-stained brick, a colourful front door and two large, front-facing windows looking out over a large front lawn.

Inside, the home has seen numerous updates, including stylish ceramic tile flooring throughout the main level, and a fresh neutral paint palette. There’s both a large more formal living space toward the front of the home, and a cozier family room (featuring a gas fireplace) toward the rear, plus a dedicated dining area featuring separation to a chef-inspired kitchen.

The kitchen features a sizeable peninsula with storage, two-toned cabinetry, stainless appliances and gas stove with pot filler, quartz countertops, tiled backsplashes and a wall-mounted faucet over a modern undercounter sink. Between the kitchen and family room, there’s also a very elegant bar nook with a striking gold backsplash.

There are three bedrooms upstairs, with the primary suite offering a custom walk-in closet and loads of space. The updated bathroom features with both a huge walk-in glass shower and a modern standalone tub. The additional bedrooms are sizeable, and feature the same rich hardwood-style flooring as the master.  

The basement of this home has been fully finished, and makes for a perfect entertaining space, teen hangout or multi-purpose space. There’s also an additional bedroom on the lower level, plus a large built-in bar and a three-piece bathroom with a walk-in shower.

Cast yourself ahead in time a few months, and you’ll also see why the backyard of this home is a major selling point. It features a 20- by 40-foot in-ground pool, which is surrounded by landscaped garden beds, a two-tiered cedar deck and a Tiki Hut off to the side. So, if the seemingly never-ending winter has you down, imagine the summer view from this backyard ― with the late August sun setting over the soccer fields, baseball diamonds and parkland just beyond the back fence. See? Warmer already.
