Description
Set back off the road and nestled amongst the trees is this gorgeous custom built two-storey family home on a rare and secluded 5 acre Ootischenia property. Great attention to detail was paid throughout the 5,000 square feet of living area and the home offers an excellent opportunity for a work/play lifestyle. This executive 5 bedroom 4 1/2 bath has plenty of space for the growing family. All 5 bedrooms are located on the upper floor along with 3 full baths including the popular Jack and Jill layout. The master suite is an opulent space with its large room size, gas fireplace and beautiful ensuite. The main floor features stunning vaulted cathedral ceilings, hardwood floors of traditional American cherry and maple, a gourmet kitchen with granite countertops and high-end appliances, a formal dining room and large living room with a gas fireplace. There is also a home-based office with its own separate entry which would allow a homeowner to work from the house on a daily basis. The basement is a retreat to play games or just hang out and watch a movie. Much of the main living space flows naturally towards the back yard and once you see it you will know why. The beautiful inground pool is surrounded by spaces to relax and enjoy including a large deck and several large patio areas with gorgeous custom pavers. The entire space can be used in complete seclusion due to the layout of the home on the lot and the mature trees. There is room to build a shop or potential for a lot to be subdivided off the front (id:63159)

Financial Summary
Cash Needed at Closing
Minimum down payment: 5% on the first $500,000, 10% on the portion up to $1.5M, 20% at/above $1.5M. Stress test: OSFI's minimum qualifying rate, the greater of contract rate + 2% or 5.25% — this is what lenders require you to qualify at, not what you'll actually pay. Closing costs are a typical-range estimate, not a quote — actual legal fees vary. Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
