Welcome to 628 Cognac Crescent, a spacious four bedroom brick home with three washrooms situated within a quiet, family-minded neighbourhood of west Pickering’s highly desirable Amberlea community.
Featuring a double car garage, and an interlocking walkway and front terrace lined with shrubs and perennials - through the enclosed front porch is a glass-panelled entry door with sidelights opening into an incredibly spacious reception area illuminated by glass globe light fixtures, and with its tiled flooring continued into the adjacent powder and laundry rooms.
The formal living and dining rooms are generously sized and have an openness to each other well-suited for large gatherings. Oversized windows in both of these elegant entertaining spaces fill them with natural light; the living room features the cozy touch of a fireplace, a double French door entry off the reception area, and hardwood flooring original to the home that is continued into the dining room and the kitchen area; while enhancing the intimate ambiance of the dining room is an exquisite crystal chandelier, with this space also having a French door entry into the kitchen.
A private space that is also suitable as a home office or fitness area, the den has a large window and is finished with dark-stained parquet hardwood flooring - as is the adjacent family room - this warm and inviting entertaining space featuring a fireplace with a brick mantle, track lighting, and one of two walk-out onto the backyard deck.
The kitchen and the breakfast area have an open and incredibly spacious layout - the kitchen showcasing track lighting; oak cabinetry with ample storage; stone counters and ceramic-tiled back splashes; as well as a stainless steel French door fridge, oven, dishwasher, and double under mount sink - its window overlooking the backyard. Above the breakfast area is a contemporary light fixture, while natural light floods into this space through windows on the south and east walls, and through a sliding door walk-out on the west wall - the walk-out opening onto a large deck that has plenty of space for dining and conversation areas, and which steps down to a south-facing backyard with lots of outdoor play space, as well as having great potential for a vegetable garden, an in-ground pool, or a stone patio as an entertaining extension of the deck.
This home also features an unfinished lower level that has a cold room - and with a very large open, layout - exceptional potential for future development of recreational, entertaining, and storage space. The main level additionally features a mirrored door coat closet in the foyer; a powder room, its vanity finished with a stone counter; a laundry room with a side door entrance into the home, washer and dryer, as well as cabinetry and closet storage; and carrying to the upper level is a carpeted staircase with a hardwood railing - the staircase illuminated by a vintage-style chandelier - while two skylights above flood the upper landing with natural light.
Carpeted throughout, this level features a linen closet with mirrored doors, four spacious bedrooms, and two washrooms. The second, third, and fourth bedrooms all have good-sized windows, double closets, and space for sitting or study areas - and the main 5-pc washroom features a tiled floor and bath area, as well as a wood vanity with countertop basins and an upgraded light fixture.
The graciously sized master suite showcases a bedroom filled with light through the windows along its north wall - a beautiful spot for a sitting area; and the short side hall off this relaxing retreat is where you find a walk-in closet, as well as a vanity separate from the ensuite washroom itself - which features a tiled floor and bath area, and a vanity with countertop basin and an upgraded light fixture.
A short walk to green spaces, walking trails, and public transit; and just minutes from the Amberlea Shopping Centre, as well as Highbush Public, St. Elizabeth Seton Catholic Elementary, Dunbarton High, and St. Mary Catholic Secondary Schools - this home is also just a short drive to the Pickering Town Centre Mall, the GO Station, and has easy access to Hwy 401 - as well as being close to the shopping, entertainment, and waterfront enjoyment of Pickering’s beautiful Frenchman’s Bay community along Lake Ontario.

Pickering
In the fifteenth century, Pickering was home to the Aboriginal group known as the Huron. European settlement began in the area in the early seventeenth century, with most early British settlers moving into the area after defeating the French in the Seven Years’ War. The British named the town Pickering after the town in North Yorkshire, England.
In the early 1810s, there was a large increase of settlement from a large group of Quaker immigrants that came to the area from the Eastern United States. More recently, Toronto’s continuing growth has led to Pickering’s rapid growth.
