The house for sale at 105 Pine Glen Road

Address: 105 Pine Glen Road
Neighbourhood: The Beach Agent: Mark Richards, Re/Max Hallmark Richards Group Realty Ltd., Brokerage Price: $2,750,000

The place: A custom four-bedroom home, perched on a ravine and distinguished by its unusual turreted design.

The history: The house was built in 2015 on the edge of the Glen Stewart ravine, which is full of lush greenery and walking trails. The sellers chose a traditional aesthetic with lots of amenities: heated floors, a second-floor laundry room, built-in speakers, and under-staircase storage galore.

Big selling point: Each second-floor bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom, which should cut down on fights for shower time—and also eliminate the need for any expensive bathroom renovations, at least in the short term.

Possible deal breaker: Five bedrooms, including a turret nursery and an in-law suite, make this a good place for a growing family. But there’s only parking for a single vehicle, meaning the buyers might need to set aside a little extra cash for a minivan.

This basement room is currently set up as a rec area, but it’s a separate, walled-off space with an ensuite bathroom—meaning it could be used as a bedroom or nanny suite.
