About this home
There is a sense of ease to 1788 Loyst Ave that goes beyond its scale. Newly built by Geranium in Clarehaven Estates and backing onto conservation, this approx. 3,067 sq. ft. residence pairs estate-style proportions with a setting that feels open, private and connected to nature. Ten-foot ceilings and red-oak hardwood bring warmth and presence to the main level, where a formal dining room, private office and generous great room flow naturally into the kitchen and breakfast area. A substantial island anchors the space, complemented by stone counters, extended cabinetry, a pantry and adjoining servery. Beyond the 4-panel slider, the 35' x 10' covered loggia looks out to the conservation backdrop, creating a natural extension of the home for quiet mornings, summer dinners and evenings outdoors. Upstairs, four bedrooms offer a thoughtful sense of separation. The primary suite is a true retreat with a raised ceiling, walk-in closet and ensuite with freestanding tub, glass shower and double vanity. The secondary bedrooms are equally well considered, with dedicated ensuite access, vaulted ceiling details and second-floor laundry close at hand. The unfinished lower level gives the home room to evolve, with approx. 9' ceilings, windows, a cold cellar and 3-piece rough-in ready for future living space. A three-car garage and well-planned mudroom add everyday function without interrupting the home's sense of refinement. Set within Clarehaven, an intimate, architecturally controlled estate community connected to the established hamlet of Claremont, the location offers a quieter pace without feeling removed. Trails, conservation lands, golf and four-season recreation shape the surrounding landscape, while Highway 407, Old Elm GO, Stouffville and Markham remain within reach. Space here is not simply measured in square feet. It is felt in the outlook, the privacy and the room to live well.
