Tucked into a Muskoka-like setting within city limits, this elegant 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath brick and stone home backs onto a wooded area and pond, offering a private, natural backdrop on an extra-large, landscaped lot. Approximately 5,185 sq ft of meticulously finished space includes nine-foot ceilings, solid oak staircases, hardwood floors, a private main-floor den, formal living and dining rooms, and a gourmet kitchen with granite counters, cherry cabinetry and stainless steel appliances that flows into a spacious family room with a gas fireplace. Upstairs, the primary retreat features his-and-her walk-in closets and a luxurious five-piece ensuite, with a convenient upper-level laundry. The walk-out lower level extends the living space with cork flooring, a custom high-end acoustic theatre, a recreation room and a full bath. Professionally landscaped gardens with an underground sprinkler system, patterned concrete patio and driveway complement this move-in-ready home that brings a cottage-country ambience to the city.
