Description:
As you come around the quiet crescent, you view a Victorian style home on a large, wooded corner lot in the established community of Crossing Bridge Estates in Stittsville, renowned for its many services, shops, schools, local businesses, restaurants, cafes, and many other amenities. You then pull into the four-car laneway with a double garage door, where this stunning dream home welcomes you with mature trees, perennial gardens, and natural stone walkways, right to the classic wrap around verandah with room to lounge, where you can view the natural landscape on an oversized 85’ x 101’ private property. Entering this stately and pristine home, you immediately feel a sense of cozy country with natural woods throughout (flooring, doors, railings, fireplace mantle, and custom wooden vanities and kitchen island) and a welcoming farmhouse vibe, with bright sunlight shining through the numerous large windows, a palladian window, and skylight. The perfect mix of imported ceramic tiles, hardwood flooring, and upgraded carpeting feels just right underfoot as you look up at the varied soaring vaulted ceilings and dormers, creating a sense of airiness and space. As you move to explore the back side of the home, while passing the mud room and powder room, you discover a fully open and spacious kitchen/eating area and expansive family room layout complete with a gas fireplace, with just enough smaller comfortable spaces and a separate formal dining room (or office with separate entrance), to make you feel the warmth of the home. Just then, a welcomed surprise comes into view; a southerly facing sunroom that is surrounded by 270 degrees of screened windows looking out onto the hot tub spa, private patio, trees, pathways, stone waterfall, and meticulously cared for gardens and lawns. You then ascend the stairs inside to the second level which features two more full bathrooms, an extended laundry room, and three other spacious bedrooms, all with double closets, and larger windows, creating a light, bright, and airy feel. The gem of the second level is the primary bedroom which features a very large sunken bedroom suite (20’3” x 27’11”) with a dormer and reading nook, north and east facing windows, a double sided and deep walk in closet with extra storage, and a spa-like ensuite bathroom with a double sized jetted whirlpool tub, oversized shower, double vanity with cupboards and drawers, a bonus make-up area, and its own linen closet. Finally, you discover that this beautiful home also includes a partially finished insulated/soundproofed lower level and generous amounts of storage and workshop space for all your needs, along with central air conditioning and a super high efficiency furnace, a central vacuum system, and an advanced security system. With all appliances, window/venetian blinds, ceiling fans, a storage shed, fully fenced yard, and a hot tub included, you realize that this could be your dream home.
