Showcasing exceptional interior living spaces and a summertime backyard oasis - this home also has a fully renovated dream car garage. Drywalled and spray foamed - the garage has lighting and upgraded wiring with a pony panel, special Swisstrax flooring, oak steps and handrail into the home, as well as a new garage door with two openers - and the accompanying driveway provides additional parking for four vehicles.
A new patterned concrete walkway leads to the new east-facing composite front deck, and beyond the entry door is a main level with a warm an inviting aura throughout. The reception area and main hall are finished with crown moldings and brightened with pot lighting, and their gorgeous oak hardwood flooring flows through to the family room - while plush broadloom enhances the warmth and elegance of the formal entertaining spaces.
Three oversized east-facing windows floods the living room with natural light, as does the large south window in the dining area - which also showcases the added elegance of crown moldings, as well as the ambient lighting of a beautiful chandelier.
A huge west-facing window allows warm afternoon light to spill into the family room - which also has the added coziness of a wood-burning fireplace with a tiled hearth and facade finished with richly stained oak trims, mantle shelf, and media niches. Crown moldings add an elegant touch, and this wonderful gathering spot has a wall cut-out with a granite ledge for additional openness to the kitchen.
The kitchen also has a wall pass-thru to the dining room with a granite-topped servery counter for entertaining convenience - with this stunningly updated culinary and family space showcasing richly hued cabinetry; upgraded stainless steel appliances; pot lighting, and a pendant light above a breakfast island; a stainless steel double under mount sink; granite counters and a subway-tiled back splash; as well as ceramic flooring.
Off the foyer is a coat closet - and ceramic tiles are laid on the diagonal throughout a side hall that has access to the garage; a laundry room with front load washer and dryer, as well as a powder room showcasing a furniture-style vanity.
Carrying to the upper level is a curved staircase with hardwood rail, painted white spindles, and the comfort of broadloom - which is also seen throughout the hallway, and in the third and the master bedrooms - while the second bedroom features laminate flooring, as well as a large south-facing window, ample closet storage, and a wall nook with a built-in study or hobby counter. The third bedroom also has ample closet storage, as well as chair rail and three large east-facing windows - and all three bedrooms additionally feature ceiling fans. The main 4-pc washroom features subway tiles and tiles laid on the diagonal - with the linen closet conveniently across the hall between the second and third bedrooms.
The master suite is quite exceptional in its size, has a double door entry and crown moldings throughout, and enjoys abundant natural light through its oversized west-facing windows - one which is in its 13’ x 6’ walk-in closet. This bedroom additionally features a split ensuite washroom with ceramic finishes - with its entry hall having a wall-to-wall wood vanity with double basins; while the private water closet features toilet and bidet, a walk-in shower area, and a ceiling heat lamp.
The lower level is fully finished, offers fantastic entertaining and family enjoyment space, and also provides abundant household storage including a large storage room, plus a separate cantina. The landing and its wet bar are finished with parquet hardwood flooring; pot lighting brightens the bar and the landing, as well as the huge recreation area. Completing this level is a 3-pc washroom; as well as a very spacious bedroom with semi-private access to the adjacent washroom.
The backyard has an upgraded entertaining deck partially covered by a pergola with Tuftex roofing, and built-in seating. This low maintenance oasis has a garden shed, and is very private during the summer months.

Ajax
Ajax was at first considered a part of the township of Pickering, prior to the Second World War. The town was first considered separate in 1941 when the community began to flourish around a shell plant constructed in the area. People came from all over Canada to take advantage of the economic opportunities that the plant provided, swelling development and the population of the area.
Of interest to note is that from 1941 to 1950 the town of Ajax did not have its own municipal government. After some petitioning the community became represented by an elected council in 1954.
