Cross Streets: McArton Road and Ridgemont Drive. ** Directions: Ashton Station Road to West on McArton to South on Ridgemont Drive. 234 Ridgemont Drive is a custom-built modern home in Ashton - 15 minutes from Kanata, 10 from Carleton Place and Stittsville, but a world away from any of them. Set on 1.27 acres with 155 feet of frontage and 345 feet of depth, this is one of the larger, more private lots on Ridgemont - surrounded by mature tree privacy, with a long private drive opening to a three-car attached garage. Purpose-built in 2017 with just under 3,000 sq ft of above-grade living space and the kind of natural light that only comes from a home designed once, by people who knew exactly what they wanted. The kitchen was designed for people who actually cook. High-end cabinetry, a full Miele and Jenn-Air package - integrated side-by-side fridge/freezer, built-in oven, speed oven, espresso maker, warming drawer, and microwave. A six-burner gas range with pot filler and hood anchors the cooking wall. Quartz counters and backsplash, abundant drawers, a window over the prep space. Off the kitchen, a butler's pantry with beverage and wine fridges, plus a custom wine room. Open from the kitchen, the family room features a coffered ceiling, gas fireplace with custom stone surround, and two massive patio doors leading to a large deck. Hardwood throughout, large-scale tile in the foyer. Lutron HomeWorks lighting, integrated speakers, motorized window coverings on every window, and accent lighting up the staircase. Upstairs, the primary is a true retreat - walk-in closet, custom focal wall, spa-style ensuite with oversized shower and soaker tub, views over the back. Three more generous bedrooms. Below, nearly 1,700 sq ft of unspoiled basement with high ceilings and bath rough-in - a blank canvas for a gym, theatre, or in-law suite. The deck overlooks a fully treed, farm-bordered lot. Room for a pool, hot tub, or winter skating rink. Full irrigation, mature landscaping. Be in Carleton Place in 10mins and Kanata in 15. You're not trading convenience for acreage - you're getting both. (id:27476)
