About this home

Set on an extraordinary extra-deep, private ravine lot, this stately Tudor-style residence is a rare offering in the heart of Westdale. Surrounded by mature trees and lush, park-like grounds, the home enjoys a remarkable sense of privacy while remaining just steps from McMaster University & Hospital and close to the Royal Botanical Garden forests and nature trails. Rich architectural character is evident throughout, with sumptuous gumwood wood paneling, gleaming hardwood floors and beautifully proportioned principal rooms. The thoughtfully designed layout balances elegant formal entertaining spaces with relaxed everyday living. A gracious formal dining room is complemented by an impressive living room featuring a magnificent leaded-glass bay window and a beautiful cut-stone fireplace. At the heart of the home, the open-concept kitchen flows effortlessly into a bright and inviting main-floor family room addition, where expansive windows frame serene views of the ravine garden and a cozy fireplace creates a warm, intimate atmosphere. A charming main-floor office with corner windows provides another peaceful vantage point overlooking the grounds. The upper level offers four generously sized bedrooms, while the finished attic provides a fifth bedroom suite with full bath. Crowning the family room addition is a wonderful private roof deck overlooking the rear ravine - an idyllic retreat for morning coffee, evening drinks or simply enjoying the view. Westdale is truly a nature lover's dream. It boasts top-rated schools, beautiful parks (check out the new kids' jungle gym and splash pad), miles and miles of RBG forests and behind Churchill Park are extensive waterfront walking/biking trails leading all the way to Bayfront & Pier 4 Parks. A short stroll will put you in the Westdale shopping district with its wonderful boutiques, restaurants, foodie destinations, coffee shops, public library & traditional 1930's movie theatre.
