This is one of those houses that just feels like home. Set on a whisper-quiet street in desirable Lake Bonavista, mature trees in the front yard create a sense of seclusion as you walk up to the front door of this beautiful bungalow. Inside, the living area is infused with warmth, with gorgeous hardwood floors and a wood-burning fireplace in a stone hearth. Big bay windows flood the main floor with sunshine from the east, highlighting the open layout. The kitchen has a timeless style, featuring full-height cabinetry in rich dark tones and luxe mottled granite countertops. High-end appliances will impress, including a French door refrigerator, double wall ovens, and a gas range. Thoughtfully placed pot lights add to the natural illumination from windows along the back wall, and a massive eat-up island is sure to be a natural gathering point for family and friends. The adjacent dining area makes invites entertaining, and built-in speakers give you full control over the ambiance. The primary bedroom is in the quietest corner of the house, enjoying backyard views. Dual closets are a great design element, and the ensuite has a full-size stand-up shower with a bench. There are two more large bedrooms on this level, as well as the main bathroom w/heated floors and a laundry room in a layout that feels both convenient and wonderfully spacious. The fully developed basement begins with a massive rec area – you could easily fit a home theatre, games area, and a home gym here and you would still have space. There is another bedroom and bathroom on this level, ideal for a bigger family or overnight guests, and the other bedroom/office makes a fantastic hobby space or work from home set up. Utility and storage rooms provide plentiful room for all your seasonal items. Outside, an expansive patio in an aesthetic mix of aggregate and interlocking pavers is ready for grilling, lounging, and dining al fresco as you soak up afternoon sunlight and westward skies. A large stretch of lawn is the perfect spot for kids and pets to play, sheltered by trees and foliage in the warm months. A heated detached garage off the paved alley means your vehicle is always a comfortable temperature and provides year-round project space. This community is of course, known for the lake, which is in walking distance, as are the shops and restaurants at The Promenade. Parks, schools, and off leash areas are all just minutes away on foot, while the nearby community association offers all-season sports and activities. Cycle to Fish Creek Park in under 10 minutes to take advantage of the hiking, biking, and walking trails. A short drive takes you to Macleod Trail for a full range of amenities, and commuters will love the quick trip to downtown.
