Lovingly maintained, improved and enlarged Armour Heights family home! Set on an amazing 50 x 145 foot south lot, this red brick centre hall plan will astound with over 3,750 square feet of living space and a fully renovated basement with seven foot high ceilings and a walk-out! 

The care and maintenance of this property is apparent even before you step in the front door.  Manicured gardens lead to the centre hall foyer of the home, equipped with both a double closet and a main floor powder room.  Formal living and dining rooms flank the foyer, with generous entertaining spaces for formal gatherings.  The kitchen with upgraded appliances and an incredible amount of storage space overlooks the breakfast room, making for interactive informal dining occasions for the whole family.  Adjacent to this, a main floor family room addition is sun filled with a walk-out to the south facing gardens and beautiful in-ground pool! 

On the second floor, light cascades through a large skylight, filling the centre of the home with natural light.  The primary bedroom is king-sized, with a built-in vanity, shelves, storage and multiple closet options. It overlooks the quiet backyard setting, and has access to a large and very bright five-piece ensuite bathroom. 

Three additional large bedrooms and a second floor den or office occupy this second floor.  They share access to a four-piece bathroom, and all have excellent dimension to accommodate large bedroom sets within them.

The lower level was renovated in 2014.  The ceilings consistently averages seven feet in height, and the foundations have been professionally waterproofed.  The recreation room offers a bounty of shelves and storage, as well as a cozy gas fireplace setting for weekend lounging.  There is a separate bedroom, three-piece bathroom, a beautifully renovated laundry room, as well as several storage rooms and closets.  A walk-out to the back garden is surrounded by windows to bring additional light into the basement.  

The rear gardens are completely private and fabulously equipped with an in-ground pool (with hot tub!), secret vegetable garden, and a full double car garage.  The garage has two 240 volt plugs for power tools, further furnishings, or to include electric car chargers.  There is a large storage room, a pool equipment room, and as well a concealed change room for the pool.  The garden is fully fenced including a hinged access point on the driveway. 

This is an incredible long-term family home in the coveted Armour Heights neighbourhood. It is a home that has been cherished, maintained beautifully and respected inside and out.  It is a wonderful opportunity for its next family and is not to be missed!
