2036 MOUNTAINSIDE DRIVE Tucked into a sought-after community, this deceptively spacious 1, 881 square foot home offers far more than meets the eye, blending thoughtful updates with exceptional indoor & outdoor living. The main level features an updated kitchen with granite countertops & a column fridge & freezer overlooking the living room, along with a separate office, 2 bedrooms & convenient main level laundry. A bright family room addition with a cozy gas fireplace looks out over the impressively deep 136' backyard, which feels like a private, forest-like retreat thanks to its sunken setting, very mature maple trees & no residential neighbours behind. The yard is equipped with front & back irrigation, a gas line for a BBQ & an Arctic Ocean saltwater swim spa controlled from your phone. Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers a walk-in closet & private 2 piece ensuite, complemented by an upper-level great room with vaulted ceilings ideal as a retreat or flexible living space. The walk-out finished basement adds valuable versatility with a rec room, bedroom, 3 piece bathroom & workshop and opens to a covered porch, while the living driveway leads to a detached, climate-controlled garage currently set up for 1 vehicle but easily convertible to 2. Ideally located within walking distance to shopping, restaurants, schools & parks, with public transit nearby, quick highway access & just minutes to the GO station, this home delivers an exceptional combination of space, comfort & lifestyle.
