CLAIRLEA
CRESCENT
Beneath mature trees on a quiet crescent, 20 Clairlea brings together storybook charm, beautifully renovated living spaces and a garden that feels like part of the home.
The heart of it all is a generous 14' x 20' family-room addition, where 9-foot ceilings, a gas fireplace and warm terracotta tile invite you to settle-in. A wall of windows follows the garden through the seasons, from leafy summer afternoons to the first snowfall. Open to the raised chef's kitchen and dining area, it's a natural gathering place for slow breakfasts, lively dinners and evenings that carry on a little longer. Custom kitchen cabinetry, quartz counters and backsplash, hardwood floors and Hunter Douglas window coverings reflect the thought invested throughout. A separate formal living room, den and a library offer quieter places to read, work or retreat (there is potential for a third bedroom here).
Additional bedroom and washroom opportunities abound on the upper level, although a full owner's suite could be created in the lower level - with plumbing perfectly situated for an ensuite.
The finished lower level adds comfortable living space, built-in cabinetry, generous storage.
Outside, the fully fenced garden is private, established and manageable, with a shaded patio for dining and very little reason to spend your weekend behind a lawn mower. A new Summerwood Urban Studio offers room for creative pursuits, hobbies or a retreat of your own.
Practical investments are equally thoughtful: an aluminum roof, a Generac generator wired to the whole house, and meticulous ongoing care. Freshly painted and beautifully kept, this is a home you can settle into now, with possibilities to explore as your household evolves. Whether you're starting a family or making room for a different pace of life, there's something lovely about a home with space to gather and places to be quiet. With neighbourhood schools and Clairlea Park nearby, 20 Clairlea offers it all.
