This isn't a house. It's a lifestyle upgrade. Built in 2021 on a quiet cul-de-sac backing onto conservation land, this custom 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home in Port Dover was designed around one idea: living well and sharing it with the people you love. The main floor opens wide with a great room that flows from the living area to the chef's kitchen without apology. Floor-to-ceiling black-framed windows pull the conservation greenery inside, and the linear gas fireplace makes the room. The kitchen gets compliments before anyone opens a drawer: white shaker cabinetry, subway tile, brass hardware, a statement black island with seating for four, and a retro-cool GE Caf appliance suite. Then there's the backyard. This property was built for a crowd. The upper deck sits under LUMON UV cover with glass retracting wall for wind protection, a natural gas BBQ and treetop views of the conservation area. Below, the pool surround delivers: an inground heated pool, hot tub, outdoor composite shower, 2 fire pits, and a covered entertaining zone that seats a full dinner party. A 4,000-gallon rainwater cistern keeps the extensively landscaped grounds lush and green. With 10-foot ceilings throughout, the lower level feels anything but basement. The recreation room has ping pong, shuffleboard, and exposed brick with vintage rock and roll energy. Sliding glass doors open to the covered lounge outside. The family room anchors the other end with another electric linear fireplace, and red oak built-in shelving. There's a full gym, two additional bedrooms, and a bathroom with bold geometric tile and vintage gym lockers that feel like a very cool hotel changeroom. Five bedrooms. Minutes to the lake. The city is a world away. (id:24093)
