This custom-built executive bungalow sits on more than seven acres of wooded land laced with walking trails.
It features a hand-cut stone facade, a contemporary kitchen, a wood-burning fireplace and a screened gazebo on a wraparound deck.
“My husband and I fell in love with this property and have lived here for 17 years. After two years of living in the existing home, we decided to tear it down and build our dream home,” homeowner Audrey Joy Mevissen said. “We made sure our home would have lots of large windows in all rooms to make the most of the beautiful surrounding — even in the garage. We also designed the home with the kitchen in the centre, to be the heart of the home.”
The home is a five-minute drive to downtown Nobleton where there are restaurants, shops, banks, businesses, a tennis club and a community centre.
It is also a short drive to a golf course, a conservation area and schools, with easy access to Highway 27. Toronto is about a 45-minute drive.
“Although built just 15 years ago, this bungalow replicates old-world charm with its handcut stone exterior and full copper eavestroughs and downspouts,” listing agent Andrew Ipekian said.
“Inside, it has tons of character details and modern finishes such as 10-foot ceilings throughout, radiant heated floors throughout the upper and lower levels, multiple walkouts and a chef’s kitchen.”
The one-of-a-kind large bungalow’s front exterior features lots of windows, a flagstone walkout, a double drive with attached two-car garage and a landscaped yard. There is also an oversized detached two-car garage.
Asolid wood door bordered by glass panels and a transom window opens to the foyer with crown moulding, a chandelier-style light, double closet, hardwood floor, wall sconces and wainscotting.
Partially open to the foyer, the large living room has a hardwood floor, wainscotting, crown moulding, a built-in entertainment unit, a wood-burning fireplace with brick surround and a double-door garden walkout.
From the front hall, double French doors open to the dining room which features wainscotting, crown moulding, a hardwood floor, wall sconces and a chandelier-style light.
Highlights of the kitchen include a centre island with wood counter, large granite counters, a marble stone tile floor, a ceramic small-tile backsplash, crown moulding, pot lights, a double sink, wainscotting, a pantry and built-in stainless steel appliances including a double stove.
The adjoining breakfast room has a marble stone tile floor, a large bay window and a chandelier-type light.
Open to the breakfast room, the family room features a marble stone tile floor, a picture window, a large window and a glass-door walkout. Near the family room is a mud room and two-piece bathroom combined with a laundry room.
The master bedroom includes four windows, a hardwood floor, crown moulding, pot lights and a large walk-in closet with built-in custom organizers. Its five-piece ensuite has two vanities, a corner oval tub, a large window and a separate shower stall.
The two secondary bedrooms both have hardwood floors and large closets. There is another four-piece bathroom to serve these bedrooms.
The lower level is partially finished and open concept, featuring a games room with ninefoot ceilings and a heated radiant laminate floor.
