This spacious home features 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, making it perfect for comfortable family living. All five bedrooms are conveniently located on the second floor, including the large primary suite, which offers a cozy fireplace, en-suite bathroom, and three closets, one of them a windowed walk-in. Each additional bedroom is generously sized and comes with ample closet space.

The home offers a bright and welcoming ambiance, with large, sun-filled windows in every room and high ceilings throughout. You will find recently re-finished hardwood floors throughout the entire first and second floors. Three remote-controlled gas fireplaces create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The ground floor boasts 5 common rooms, versatile in their function, including 3 living/sitting rooms, a formal dining room and 1 office, playroom or den. Adjacent to the living rooms is a sunroom/greenhouse with a gas heater which allows for year-round enjoyment.

The heart of the home is the expansive kitchen, equipped with a Viking 6-burner gas stove and oven, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, two dishwashers (Miele and Fischer Paykel), an additional electric built-in Viking wall oven and microwave, and a wine refrigerator—perfect for any cooking enthusiast or entertainer. Adjacent to the kitchen, you’ll find the formal dining room, featuring elegant paneled walls and beamed ceilings, adding a classic touch for family dinners or hosting guests.

The fully finished basement is a flexible space, complete with tile flooring, a kitchenette, a marble-finished bathroom, a separate walk-out entrance, and a huge bonus storage room that isn’t counted in the home’s square footage.

The outdoor space is equally impressive. The huge, totally fenced-in, flat backyard provides privacy and is perfect for play or a future pool. The heated two-car garage is wired for an electric car charger and includes additional storage space in a loft.

This home is equipped with modern conveniences, including a recently updated zoned heating and cooling system with independent controls for each floor, a full-house humidifier, and an Ecobee system that allows you to control the temperature remotely. The in-ground sprinkler system, also with remote access, keeps the lawn lush and green even when you’re away.

As part of the Forest Heights Neighborhood Association, you’ll enjoy community events like an annual summer block party and a winter dinner. This conveniently located home is ready for you to move in and make it your own! Additional Information: Amenities:Marble Bath,Stall Shower,Storage,ParkingFeatures:2 Car Detached,
