Cross Streets: North Mile Rd. ** Directions: Heart North of North Mile Rd. Old World Quality on The Oak Ridge. This is the kind of street where neighbours become friends and friends become family - quiet, tree-lined, close to schools, shopping, river & parks, built for folks who plan to stay a while. Nestled amongst trees and wrapped in stunning gardens, front, rear and side to side, the moment you arrive this is a house that feels like home. Lush, low-maintenance plantings, winding paths, deck, patios, a fish pond, and a children's log cabin play shed tucked quietly in the yard, with abundant places for everyone to enjoy the outdoors. Driveway parking for four. The garage operates as shed and storage; as a previous owner converted two-thirds of it to serve as the main floor family room. You're first greeted with a generous living room with a natural wood-burning fireplace. Overlooking the rear gardens, the chef's kitchen with abundant storage, stainless steel appliances, granite counters - shares space with the adjacent dining room, so everyone can be part of it, whoever's cooking. The bonus main floor family room with gas fireplace has a long view of the yard; the hardwood there is laid picture-frame style, bordered around the room's edge, designed for a large rug at centre. A perfect powder room completes the main floor. Upstairs, three large bedrooms include a primary big enough to make your own - sitting area, ensuite, whatever the next chapter calls for. The family bath is generously sized, built to share without the morning scramble.The lower level adds an updated bedroom/sitting room with its own ensuite, separate entrance/walk-up to the garden, laundry, and no shortage of storage.
