This is a rare find. A custom-built 3,985 sq ft home on a 74 x 241 ft lot in Hamilton's desirable ER zoning. Five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a separate in-law suite in the basement with its own kitchen and bath. The reclaimed brick and Hardie board exterior is just the start. Inside, you're greeted by arched doorways, a checkered porcelain foyer, and a massive mudroom. The main floor primary suite is a proper retreat with heated floors, huge walk-in closet, and a curbless glass shower. The kitchen is tricked out with a 10-foot island, quartz counters, top-tier Miele appliances, and a pantry with its own sink. Coffered ceilings and a gas fireplace anchor the living room. Upstairs, the open loft leads to three more bedrooms and a 6-piece bath. The backyard is where this place really shines. There's a cabana with a fireplace and bar, plus a 600 sq ft heated shed with a bay door. The basement in-law suite is accessible from the garage. With seven parking spots total, you're set. You're 3 km from Costco and a short drive to restaurants, and there's a university nearby. The tax bill runs about $11.5k annually. This one checks a lot of boxes.
