Description
Homes on Owls Cove Lane are unlike anything else--nestled among the trees, they offer the feeling of a private retreat in nature. This unique CP1 home is rich in character, filled with natural light, and designed to bring the outdoors in.
From the trellis-covered terrace, step into the foyer and immediately take in the open-concept living and dining area, featuring a fireplace, wet bar, built-in reading nook, and large sliding glass doors that open to the deck. The bright main-level kitchen is a standout, with expansive windows, vaulted ceilings, skylights, a walk-in pantry, and a spacious eat-in area. With direct deck access, it is the perfect spot for al fresco dining or enjoying morning tea/coffee to the sound of birds.
Upstairs, the connection to the outdoors continues. The loft-style study offers a quiet retreat, while the hallway includes thoughtful built-ins such as an ironing board, and access to the rooftop deck. At the end of the hall, the primary suite provides a peaceful escape, complete with a private balcony, two walk-in closets, dual vanities, a skylight, and a separate bathing area with a jetted tub and shower.
The walkout lower level includes two bedrooms, a full bath, a laundry room, and a large recreation room with a kitchenette, offering flexible space for guests, entertaining, or everyday living. Outside, a fenced area extends the functionality of the lower level.
Additional highlights include new interior and exterior paint (2026), a new roof (2023), new windows (2023), new skylights (2023), an updated lower level (2023), an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a new range (2026), updated bathrooms, hot tub readiness, and a solar hot water heater.
