Multi-generational living option with Private In-Law Suite
Enjoy the serenity of small town country living while being right outside the city. Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in the quaint Village of Wellesley, this beautiful brick bungalow is set back from the road, boasting wide frontage, a triple car garage, pretty landscaping, a covered front porch, and an interlocking stone patio for a great first impression. Leave the stress of the city behind at the end of the day and take the short commute to Wellesley located just 13 kilometres north of Waterloo.
This 2,556 square foot home has a unique layout with one end of the house containing an in-law or granny suite setup which includes a living room with a sliding door walkout to a second deck, a full kitchen, and a good-sized bedroom with a walk-in closet and a 5-piece ensuite.
The finished basement boasts an Lshaped recreation room with a gas fireplace showcasing a floor-to-ceiling brick mantle, a cold cellar, a utility room, and lots of storage space. There are also 2 additional bedrooms, each with its own walk-in closet, sharing a 4-piece Jack and Jill bathroom, and providing the option of multigenerational living by accommodating 3 or more generations under one roof. As the population ages and life expectancy increases, more and more people are now living with their children and grandchildren. According to Statistics Canada this is the first time in history that the over 65-year-old population outnumbers the under-15 age group. While homes with multi-generational suites have been commonplace in many parts of the world, they are becoming more popular in Canada as well. This beautiful home will give you the opportunity to strengthen family ties as you help aging family members or share the cost of home ownership.
A modern, spacious open concept layout in the middle of the home highlights gleaming hardwood floors, high ceilings, and encompasses the living room, kitchen, and dining room with a gorgeous gas fireplace featuring a white mantle flanked by palladium windows as the centerpiece. The gourmet kitchen is stunning with white custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a brick-look ceramic backsplash, a large island, and stainless steel appliances. It incorporates a bright, expansive eat-in area with a French door walkout to the covered wood deck overlooking a hot tub and a private, treed backyard that radiates a cottage-like atmosphere.
The master suite includes a huge walkin closet which leads to a luxury ensuite with a separate soaker tub, glass shower, dual sinks, and a second walkout to the deck. An additional bedroom, a bathroom, the laundry room with garage access, and a home office located to the right of entry are also on the main floor. MLS®.
