Set on over 5 private hillside acres in North BX, this uniquely designed rancher with walkout basement captures sweeping views over Swan Lake and the city below, with sunsets that become part of the daily rhythm. Custom built in 2012 with exceptional quality, every room was thoughtfully positioned to maximize light and scenery through expansive windows.
In-floor radiant boiler heating on both levels, with four control zones, ensures consistent year-round comfort. The main level features marble kitchen countertops, motorized skylights, and seamless access to multiple decks and patios, with five outdoor living spaces in total, creating effortless indoor-outdoor flow.
The primary suite is a retreat of its own, complete with a private patio, top-down bottom-up window coverings, a walk-in closet with clean sliding doors, and a spa-inspired ensuite with a deep soaker tub and multi-head shower.
Downstairs, the bedrooms open directly to the outdoors. A wet bar with granite counters offers excellent entertaining space and is already designed for easy conversion into a one-bedroom suite. Generous storage connects to the oversized double garage.
Durable finished concrete-style floors run throughout, and Hardie board siding ensures low-maintenance living. The fenced acreage is fully set up for horses or other animals and backs directly onto the renowned Grey Canal Trail.
A detached barn and workshop with its own water and power meters adds versatility for hobbyists or small-scale agricultural use. Municipal water provides extra peace of mind. Enjoy a thriving garden with two varieties of plums and sour cherries, along with strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, currants, saskatoons, honeyberries, hazelnuts, and wild asparagus.
