The place

In 2019, the current seller purchased a small bungalow on the lot, tore it down and built this place. He hired the Oakville-based architectural designer David Small to create a modern four-bedroom, five-bathroom home, with more than 4,500 square feet of interior space. Construction was completed in 2021.

The home sits on an oversized corner lot, next to a small neighbourhood park with tennis courts. And there aren’t any sidewalks in the area, which gives this place a more cottage-y, country feel.

The tour

The living room has a built-in entertainment unit with a gas fireplace:

Here’s the dining room, which opens into the kitchen. There’s a glass display cabinet with integrated lighting and a built-in Bosch espresso machine:

The lower level has heated floors throughout. In the rec room, custom panels and blinds completely black out the space, converting it into a theatre. When the screen isn’t in use, there’s a gas fireplace behind it:

There’s also a gym, with floating mirrors and a glass wall:
