The Place

A two-plus-two bedroom, three-bathroom suburban home in St. Thomas (with a backyard bar!).

The Details

This week’s listing takes us back out to St. Thomas, for a two-bed, three-bath family-oriented home at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, with a two-car garage, a lush front garden and colourful shutters on the front windows.

There’s a big backyard in the back — and perhaps in your mind’s eye you can hear a dog barking, the smell of a barbecue or the sound of bottles and ice in a backyard cooler. This is a home that will work for a lot of different buyers, but if that idyllic suburban life is what you’re after, this home might be particularly perfect for you.

Inside, the home has many features you expect to see in modern single-family homes like this. As you enter, there is a large mudroom space with built-in benches and shelving. To the left is a formal living room, with a gas fireplace, three large windows and vaulted ceilings that add to the spaciousness of the room. As you move toward the back of the house, there’s a second living room and a door leading into the large kitchen area.

There’s a great deal of space in the kitchen and dining area. On one side, there is a large island and hardwood flooring, an ideal place form informal family dining, and to host weekend gatherings. On the other, you have the functional part of the kitchen, with lots of space on the granite countertops, a double sink, stainless-steel appliances and loads of cabinets in neutral white. To round it out, there’s a dining nook area, with casement windows on two sides and a sliding glass door out to the backyard.

There are two bedrooms on the main floor and two bathrooms. The primary suite features hardwood flooring and an ensuite bathroom with a large tub and a walk-in shower. The second bedroom also has hardwood floors, and there’s a shared half-bath on the main level as well.

There are two more spacious bedrooms in a finished lower level that also includes a full bathroom. The lower level also includes ample entertainment space — perfect for a TV room but also offering conversion options for anything from a home office to a workout area.

The backyard is one of the main selling points here. From the main floor, you can access the raised deck area. There are two sets of staircases leading off this deck — one goes down to the spacious backyard, while the other takes you to a covered lower-level deck. There’s a firepit and should you find yourself a bit thirsty while you’re down there, you might sidle up to the custom backyard home bar, which has seating for four and retractable garage-style door.
