Backing onto the Beaver Pond Trails, this stately family home sits on a mature, oversized lot in the heart of Kanata Lakes. The "WOW" factor begins at the curb, where a long, sweeping driveway leads to a masterfully designed exterior featuring professional landscaping and elegant hardscaping. Experience immediate grandeur from the moment you enter the sun-drenched two-story foyer. Architecturally enhanced with a unique 3-foot extension, the main level features an expanded chef's kitchen with granite counters, gas cooktop, and a movable island. The open-concept living/dining area boasts designer millwork and a modern stone fireplace. Relax in the dramatic sunken family room with soaring ceilings or work from the private main-floor den. Retreat to a massive Primary suite featuring a gas fireplace, custom walk-in closet, and an enlarged 5-piece ensuite,(another welcome plus from that 3 ft extension!). Three additional spacious bedrooms (one with private ensuite) complete the upper level. The finished lower level currently offers a media room, family room, gym, and guest suite with full bath-but with two potential conforming bedrooms, multi-generational living is easily possible! Step outside to your private backyard oasis, an expansive retreat that feels worlds away. The massive private lot features a sprawling deck with various entertaining areas, perfect for BBQ's or a quiet evening for 2 (or 20 if you prefer), with plenty of lush green space for play or a future pool, all while offering direct access to nature trails. Walk to top-rated schools across multiple boards, and access restaurants, music schools, parks, and shopping within minutes! (id:2493)
