A modern, custom-designed four-bedroom, four-bathroom home in Wortley Village.
The Details
Often our Home of the Week will highlight a traditional market offering ― a classic single-family home with familiar layouts and comfortable furnishings, for instance. Other times, as in this week, it’s a more stylish affair ― like this custom-built four-bed, four-bath home in Wortley Village, delivering a modern, urban design and luxurious finishes. It is a statement-making home, but not at the expense of livability or comfort.
The sleek and sophisticated design is evident from the moment you step inside, where you’ll find a set of glass-and-metal open riser stairs, with natural light reflecting in all directions from the vast expanses of glass. The 10-foot ceilings add height and volume to the largely open-concept main level, while touches of natural wood in the custom millwork balance the design throughout the home.
The kitchen area is one of the main focal points of the first level. It features a large central island with sink, a six-burner, commercial-grade gas stove and a beautiful array of pendant lighting. The kitchen also features sleek custom cabinetry, a double-wide fridge and a built-in glassware storage cabinet, plus access to the elevated back deck. The dining area and living room follow the kitchen, and both feature large sliding glass doors leading to different sections of the outdoor space. The living room is anchored by a wood feature wall, and also features shelving and cabinet storage along one of the back walls.

The primary bedroom suite will be a major selling point here ― it’s covers a large footprint with beautiful plank flooring and its own quiet private balcony. This suite also features a walk-in closet, plus a spa-like ensuite bathroom with a large walk-in shower, standalone soaker tub and separate room for a custom double vanity unit. There are three additional bedrooms on the second level as well, one or more of which could be easily converted to a home office or studio if needed, plus another full shared bathroom. The upper level also houses a dedicated laundry room.
Downstairs you’ll find a fully finished basement with cork flooring, a stylish bar, plenty of space for a games or home theatre room, an additional bedroom with egress and bathroom.
One of the nicest feature of this property might be the tranquil backyard oasis. It’s fully fenced for privacy, with landscaped garden beds around the perimeter and mature trees all around. There’s an elevated wood deck with a hot tub, an outdoor kitchen with a grill, sink and outdoor fridge, and plenty of space for outdoor furniture. From there you step down to a concrete patio zone off the living room, with plenty more space for tables and outdoor seating. The backyard also includes a modern-design storage shed.
And no modern home would be complete without smart-home features, and this property has them in abundance. There’s a four-zone built-in Sonos sound system delivering the tunes both inside and out, Google voice-controlled smart lighting in key areas, and the double car garage is heated and features epoxy flooring.
