Overlooking the waters of Lake Scugog, 46 Ambleside Drive is a beautiful custom-built home located in the town of Port Perry in Durham Region.
Attention to detail is showcased both inside and outside this stunning home. The 3-car garage is complete with a workshop area and heated floors. The interlocking stone of the driveway and front entrance continue around the home to the the backyard patio and terrace. Thousands have been spent on the professionally landscaped front and back yards, highlighted with mature gardens, beautiful waterfall features and hand-picked granite slabs. Dog owners can benefit from an invisible fence which surrounds the entire property.
A custom mahogany front door with wrought iron inserts invites you inside to the almost 3,400 sq. ft of living space.
Custom trim work, cabinetry, and lighting fixtures are found throughout the entire home, and a spectacular picture window in the living room provides a stunning view of the back gardens, pool area, and Lake Scugog.
Designer ceramic floor tiles flow from room to room on the main level, and transom windows on the exterior windows and doors, as well as the interior doors, bring in natural light throughout the home.
The custom kitchen features exceptional granite work. The centre island has been customized to fit the largest slab, and granite creates a seamless transition between the counter tops and back splash.
A Wolf stove; SubZero side-by-side, wine, and bar fridges; microwave and warming drawers; a Miele dishwasher; two under mount sinks; and tons of pantry and cupboard space complete this beautifully designed kitchen.
The living room's motorized chandelier can be lowered for easy cleaning, and the propane fireplace is one of four found in the house.
The laundry room comes with a Miele washer and dryer, ample work space, a built-in ironing board, and provides access to the side yard walkway.
The 3-pc powder room comes with a tiled shower area, and marble forms the trim around the shower's glass door and the room's floor.
A propane stone fireplace with rich wood trim adds warmth to the office, and the almost floor-to-ceiling picture window provides a view of the immaculately kept from gardens.
The customized compass inlay adds stunning detail to the front foyer. The adjacent formal dining room features another propane fireplace, and showcases of four Shombeck chandeliers in the home, the others of which are found in the master bedroom and master ensuite, as well as the front foyer.
Custom built-in cabinetry and a large picture window with bench seating are found in the main level's secondary bedroom, which also comes with a large double closet and its own 3-pc ensuite.
The master bedroom is a retreat all on its own. French doors open to a backyard patio, and a double sided fireplace adds warmth to both the bedroom and the 6-pc ensuite.
Overlooking the back gardens is a sunken Jacuzzi tub at the foot of the fireplace. The oversized glass enclosed shower area has a rain shower with body sprays and steamer, and its own separate water source for stronger pressure.
Through the French doors, a 3-tier lighted waterfall extends beyond the flagstone patio.
The walk-in closet uses space efficiently, with custom drawer organizers, abundant shelving and hanging space, as well as a built-in ironing board for last-minute touch-ups.
The upper level features mahogany finish hardwood floors in the family areas and bedroom. A spare room is suited to a games room, small office, or as a workout room; and the main family room, with its surround sound system, is ideal as a media room.
The attic has been designed for future use, including rough-in for a washroom of approximately 225 sq. ft. in size, and large windows for a naturally lit space.
The 4-pc washroom showcases beautiful marble work surrounding the tub and shower area, and as the vanity counter top. This bathroom also serves as a semi-ensuite to the adjoining bedroom, which has a stunning view of the backyard and the lake.
