Some homes impress with their interiors. Others with their setting. Rarely do you find one that delivers both quite like this. Tucked into a quiet court and set against a spectacular mature ravine in the heart of River Oaks, this exclusive Merrick Seven Oaks Collection Grosvenor model offers over 6,000 sq ft of finished living space and a remarkable combination of privacy, scale and timeless sophistication. Generous principal rooms unfold across a light-filled main level, from elegant living and dining rooms to a 25-ft kitchen with custom cabinetry and premium built-inappliances and a separate family room with fireplace. At the rear, a nearly 22-ft sun room with skylights and fireplace draws your eye to the greenery beyond. Upstairs, the impressive primary retreat spans almost 30 ft and is joined by three generous bedrooms and a substantial private office with its own fireplace. The lower level is made for entertaining, with a large recreation room and wet bar, gym, full bath, wine cellar, separate tasting room and walk-up to the backyard. But step outside and the character of this property changes completely. More private resort than backyard, a series of outdoor living spaces unfolds against the ravine. A sparkling pool and hot tub anchor the setting, surrounded by extensive hardscaping and an elevated deck for dining and BBQs. A covered pergola creates an intimate outdoor lounge, while a separate terrace tucked among the trees offers another quiet escape. Mature landscaping wraps around it all, creating remarkable privacy and a backdrop that changes with the seasons. All this in one of Oakville's most established family neighbourhoods, surrounded by parks and trails and close to highly regarded public and private schools. A home where exceptional space, remarkable privacy and the natural beauty of its ravine setting come together in one of River Oaks' most desirable locations. (id:60164)
