Some homes simply feel right the moment you arrive. Thoughtfully reimagined with timeless Craftsman-inspired architecture, exceptional attention to detail and spaces designed for real family living. Large principal rooms, oversized windows and carefully connected living spaces create airy, light-filled spaces that feel both welcoming and remarkably functional. Hand-scraped hardwood, heated floors, custom millwork, skylights and quality finishes appear throughout, while the beautifully appointed kitchen offers quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, gas cooking and generous workspace overlooking the dining room and family room beyond. Versatile spaces that will adapt to your needs. Three walkouts lead to covered outdoor entertaining areas, creating an effortless connection between the home and its spectacular backyard. The upper level features a spacious primary retreat with a walk-in closet, Juliet balcony and spa-inspired ensuite, complete with heated floors, skylight, soaker tub and oversized glass shower. Two additional bedrooms share a bright, massive family bath, while the bright loft landing offers the perfect home office, reading nook or homework space, expanded by the vaulted ceilings.
The finished lower level adds exceptional flexibility with a large recreation room, fourth bedroom suite potential, workshop, abundant storage and rough-in for an additional bathroom. Even the fully finished garage functions as an extension of the home, with direct access to both the interior and backyard.
Outside, mature spruce, Japanese maple, perennial gardens, a covered timber-framed deck, multiple entertaining areas, charming cedar playhouse and a level, pool-ready lawn, adjacent to the ravine, create a private woodland setting that feels worlds away from the city.
Located on a quiet street in mature Oakridge, a Southwest Scarborough neighbourhood, you'll enjoy excellent schools, nearby parks, playgrounds, recreation facilities, shopping, GO Transit, TTC, the Scarborough Bluffs and Rouge National Urban Park, with convenient access to Highway 401 and downtown Toronto.
A home built for gathering, growing and making memories for years to come.
