An exceptional home and property situated within west Pickering’s highly desirable Rougemount neighbourhood, welcome to 1473 Altona Road.
Set on a premium-sized lot, the property showcases an interlocking driveway, stone and perennial landscaping, as well as mature trees and hedges bringing privacy to the front and back yards. The home itself has a brick exterior with a stone and stucco front facade, exterior pot lighting, and a double door garage - while the interior showcases superb appointments, just over 4,000 sq. ft. of main and upper level living space, as well as a fully finished lower level.
The stone portico’s entry door and sidelights are accented with frosted glass and wrought iron inserts - inviting you into a travertine tiled reception foyer that immediately opens into the first of this home’s beautifully appointed interior spaces - the formal entertaining rooms. Exuding an aura of elegance, the formal living room showcases a tray ceiling with crown moldings, custom window treatments, pot lighting, and hardwood flooring - with the hardwood flowing into the adjacent formal dining room. Equally elegant, this space has a curved accent wall that has two cut-out for openness to the main hall, is illuminated by two exquisite chandeliers, and like the living room, also has custom treatments for its windows.
The hardwood flooring is continued throughout the main hall and into the family room - an impressive casual entertaining space with a waffled Cathedral ceiling, suspended from which is a magnificent spiral chandelier; as well as two storeys of windows with custom treatments. This room also shares with the adjacent breakfast room the warmth of a double-sided gas fireplace with built-in TV niches on either side and fully surrounded with stacked stone cladding.
With a gorgeous contemporary design, the gourmet kitchen showcases cabinetry with interior accent and under mount lighting, open shelving, and an upper cabinet with frosted panels; a centre island with breakfast seating, pendant lighting, and a prep sink; stone counters and a glass-tiled back splash; a stainless steel double sink and high-end built-in appliances including dishwasher, 6-burner gas cooktop, wall oven and microwave, as well as a side-by-side fridge/freezer - and travertine flooring is the finishing touch here and in the breakfast area. There is also direct access to the formal dining room for entertaining convenience - while casual entertaining is readily extended to the outdoors during the warm weather months, where large gatherings can be easily accommodated on a huge deck overlooking the massive backyard.
Beautifully appointed, the main level powder room has been expanded to create a luxurious dressing and make-up area, yet this room can be converted back to its original layout of two distinct spaces - with a wall separating the powder room from a home office that would have its entry off the family room.
Carrying to the upper level is a beautiful dark-stained oak hardwood staircase with wrought iron spindles, and this level showcases hardwood flooring and pot lighting throughout; a laundry room; as well as four spacious bedrooms, all with ensuite washrooms - while the hallway also has a curved feature wall, crown moldings, a huge skylight with an elegant chandelier suspended from within, and an interior balcony from which to better appreciate the grandeur of the family room below.
The fourth bedroom features a walk-in closet and crown moldings with recessed accent lighting, and has access to a Jack-and-Jill washroom shared with the third bedroom, which features a double closet, a pendant-style chandelier, and a curved ceiling.
The second bedroom also has a double closet, windows with arched transoms, and a vaulted ceiling with two matching chandeliers.
This level has a very spacious double linen closet, and conveniently across the hall is a laundry room.
Luxuriously appointed throughout, the master suite showcases a gas fireplace, a sitting area, a tray ceiling with crown moldings, two chandeliers, two separate walk-in closets, and a spa-like ensuite washroom.
Off the staircase to the lower level is a travertine-tiled sunken landing, which has two separate closets, as well as access to the attached garage.
The lower level showcases hardwood flooring, pot lighting, and above grade windows throughout - while its massive recreation area adds incredible living and entertaining space to the home. This huge room can accommodate two separate sitting areas; has a custom wood bar; and a games area. This level also has a cold room and plenty of storage; a luxurious washroom; while a huge bedroom completes this level.
