Listing agent Ashley Shaw says it was interesting to see the wide demographic interested in this modern build by Day Custom Homes Construction. “Potential buyers ranged from young professionals to couples in their 70s. The people who bought are young professionals.”
The builder/owner loves to entertain and designed the home to reflect his lifestyle. “It’s well put together and it’s an entertainer’s dream,” Shaw says.
The main floor has an office, an open-concept dining room and a kitchen with wood cabinetry, a large island and a walkout to a porch.
A highlight is the family room with a fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows. The back of the house is almost all glass, offering views of the stylish backyard, with its patio, fireplace, dining area, pool and waterfall. Electronic blinds, in three different zones, provide privacy.
“Agents who saw the house were impressed by the two-storey family room with its floor-to-ceiling windows. It’s a huge feature,” Shaw says.
The backyard is maintenance free, with Astroturf and a sprinkler system for plants.
In the “neat-and-cool category”, the stairs from the outdoor lounge area lift up, providing access to the large storage space under the covered porch. It’s ideal for storing patio furniture.
The primary suite, with his-and-hers closets and a five-piece ensuite bathroom, shares the second level with three bedrooms and two ensuite bathrooms.
A recreation room and gym on the lower level provide great escape space in cold or rainy weather.
In addition to the attraction of being a builder’s own home, with its extra upgrades and luxury finishes, the property enjoys an appealing Sunnylea location. “It has a small-town feel,” says Shaw.
Kingsway/sunnylea has some of the best ranked schools as well as larger lots. This lot measures 42x110 feet and has a private driveway with parking for two cars.
