About this home
Discover elevated Scandinavian-inspired living in the heart of Elizabeth Gardens, one of South Burlington's most sought-after neighbourhoods. Tucked away at the end of a quiet, curved road and surrounded by lush greenery, this exceptional 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home was completely reimagined in 2022, including a thoughtfully designed third-storey addition, offering approx 1,700 sqft of beautifully finished above-grade living space. Inside, a warm, minimalist palette of natural wood, crisp white walls , vaulted ceilings and black architectural accents creates a home that feels both striking and inviting. The open-concept kitchen and dining area is filled with natural light, with expansive black-framed windows and sliding doors connecting seamlessly to the private backyard. The custom kitchen features natural wood cabinetry, quartz surfaces, high-end built-in appliances, an encased range hood with floating shelf and an oversized waterfall island. A showstopping open-riser staircase with natural wood treads and sleek black railings creates a striking architectural focal point. On the second level, the Scandinavian aesthetic continues in the bright and airy living room, anchored by a dramatic suspended wood-burning fireplace and oversized windows framing the surrounding greenery. The private primary retreat features a beautiful ensuite and patio doors opening to a deck overlooking the lush backyard. The third-storey addition offers three generous bedrooms with large closets, a beautifully tiled 4-piece bathroom and a tucked-away nook ideal for a home office or workout space. The lower level provides additional living space, laundry, a powder room and ample storage. Outside, the extra-wide backyard is a private oasis with established greenery, a spacious deck, hot tub, storage shed and convenient garage-door access. Set among the tree-lined streets of Elizabeth Gardens, this one-of-a-kind home pairs thoughtful Scandinavian design with exceptional indoor-outdoor living.
