Property Description

HIGHEST AND BEST DUE BY MONDAY, APRIL 20TH AT 10:00 AM. The perfect home on one of the most desirable streets in the Braeside neighborhood! This beautifully appointed 5-bedroom, 5 full bath and 1 half bath home blends luxurious finishes with thoughtful design and exceptional functionality. Recent improvements include re-stained wide-plank hardwood floors, new carpeting throughout, all new lighting fixtures, a remodeled powder room, and a reconfigured basement. The first floor features a private office with a sun-filled bay window, built-ins and a custom steel-and-glass wall with French door entry. The formal dining room is ideal for entertaining, complete with a designer brushed brass chandelier and a built-in bar with white quartz countertop, new brass hardware, two wine refrigerators and an ice maker. The stunning chef's kitchen offers custom white cabinetry with new polished nickel hardware, quartz countertops, white subway tile backsplash, professional-grade stainless steel appliances, including a Viking range, an additional built-in Viking oven in the island, a Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, additional integrated Sub-Zero refrigeration drawers, a wine/beverage refrigerator and two Miele dishwashers, plus an oversized island with seating and designer pendant lighting. A generous eat-in area with a wall of windows overlooks the fully fenced yard with a new designated playground area, and features sliding doors that open to the large paver patio. The kitchen opens seamlessly to the spacious family room, creating the perfect layout for everyday living and entertaining. A gorgeous powder room and an oversized mudroom/laundry room with porcelain heated floors, built-in lockers, double washer/dryers, and abundant storage lead to the heated 3-car garage. The second floor offers a spacious primary suite with vaulted ceilings, built-ins, a sitting area, French doors leading to a private office, and two walk-in closets. The spa-like bath features heated floors, a large steam shower, double vanities, an additional makeup vanity, and a private commode closet. Three additional generously sized bedrooms each have en-suite baths, and two of the three also include attached flex spaces ideal for a playroom, study area or office. The huge finished walk-out basement includes two large recreation spaces - one with a built-in wet bar - plus a fifth bedroom, a full bathroom, and access to the finished shed, currently used as a home gym, but easily suited for a studio, office, or creative workspace. This exquisite home truly checks every box and is not to be missed.
