Islington Ave & The Lake Modern. Trendy. A work of art. Fall in love from the moment you walk thru the door; a fully-renovated and surprisingly-spacious, family-sized home, in an unbeatable location. Highly-sought-after Lakeside community, steps to the Lake, lakeside parks, Waterfront Trail and more! Fun, funky, freshly-updated home is a delightful blend of Contemporary Styling and Old School Charm. Purposefully and imaginatively renovated: the enchantingly-rustic foyer leads into inviting dining room with wood-beamed ceiling; wide-plank, engineered hardwood flooring; brilliant yellow sliding doors; and linear chandelier! The gourmands kitchen is straight out of Architectural Digest! Renovated in 2024, it makes a bold statement, offering a sophisticated aesthetic, with endless styling possibilities! Fabulous contrast between the uppers and lowers; leathered finish granite countertop; sleek spot lights; oversized ceramic tiles; exposed brick wall & handy pot filler. Living room is warmly-inviting with rustic sliding wood door and impressive gas fireplace; brilliantly bathed in afternoon sunlight. Love the handy main floor bath! The modern upper enjoys a touch of rustic; exposed rafters, vaulted ceilings, modern trim/doors, fresh white walls, wide-plank engineered oak hardwood and contemporary 3-piece bath. Sizable primary & 2nd bedroom offer great views and enjoy two closets each. The cute 3rd bed is currently used as a home office (but will easily work as a bedroom). Fully-finished lower level, updated in 2021, enjoys loads of living space, good ceiling height & income potential. Open concept rec room, modern kitchen, glass-enclosed wine cellar (+ retro boiler turned art), 4th bed, sparkling 4-pce bath & laundry. Plus, new vinyl flooring, the cutest little workshop and separate entrance. Fully enclosed west-facing garden with pretty perennials and rustic potting shed (with power). New composite deck (2024) with privacy panels, glass railings and BBQ line - perfect for mid-summer BBQs! (id:27476)
