Welcome to 1 Lockyer Drive, a beautiful four bedroom brick and stone home with four washrooms situated on a corner lot within an up-and-coming neighbourhood of West Whitby’s Lynde Creek community.
Featuring a double car garage, and a covered front porch with a faux balcony above - the glass-panelled double entry doors have scrolled wrought iron inserts, and open into a light filled foyer finished with upgraded floor tiles that continue into the foyer’s related spaces, as well as into the kitchen area - with other exceptional main level appointments including large windows with light-diffusing zebra blinds, pot lighting, as well as wainscoting, deep baseboards, and crown moldings.
The kitchen, dining area, and the living room have an open concept layout - the spacious living room flooded with warm natural light through windows with east- and south-facing exposures, and for added coziness, this inviting entertaining space has a gas fireplace surrounded by a floor-to-ceiling stacked stone facade.
The gorgeous gourmet kitchen showcases an island with seating, a double wide stainless steel under mount sink, and a glass globe linear light fixture; stone counters and a stone-tiled back splash; light-coloured cabinetry with two glass-panelled upper accent cabinets, and great storage that includes a large pantry; as well as a stainless steel French door fridge, wall oven and microwave, dishwasher, and gas cooktop.
Off the kitchen is a side hall with storage shelves that leads into the rear mudroom - which has a secondary coat closet, access to the garage, as well as staircase access to an unfinished lower level that has oversized basement windows and great potential for future finished recreational space - and above the dining area is a light fixture complementary in style to that above the kitchen island.
The foyer wall is trimmed with a geometric design; its reception hall has a double closet with mirrored doors; and at the end of this hall, tucked away for privacy, is a powder room with a pedestal sink.
The living room also has a glass-panelled door with a scrolled wrought iron insert opening to a backyard that awaits transformation into an outdoor retreat; and to the upper level is a hardwood staircase with wrought iron pickets - above its lower landing are two staircase windows and an exquisite chandelier for natural and ambient brightness - and the wainscoting along its wall is continued throughout the upper hallway. This level also showcases hardwood flooring throughout - in addition to pot lighting and upgraded light fixtures; light-diffusing zebra blinds on all the windows; upgraded baseboards; extra tall room entries and interior doors; a double linen closet; and a laundry area with a front load washer and dryer.
The hallway, as well as the second, third, and fourth bedrooms are finished with crown moldings, and all three of these bedrooms have double closets with mirrored doors, as well. The second and third bedrooms share the common-use 5-pc washroom, which features a tiled floor and bath area, as well as a vanity with double basins; these two bedrooms can also accommodate sitting or study areas; while the fourth bedroom has its own 4-pc ensuite washroom with a tiled floor and bath area.
The elegant master suite showcases a tray ceiling with a modern chandelier, a trimmed accent wall, a walk-in closet, and windows with east- and south-facing exposures - with its beautiful spa-like ensuite washroom showcasing upgraded tiled finishes; a freestanding tub; a vanity with stone counter; and a glass shower area.
Nestled in a neighbourhood close to green spaces and walking trails - this home is minutes from the Queens Common Shopping Centre and schools; is a short drive to the Entertainment Centrum, the GO Station, Whitby’s vibrant downtown, and its exceptional waterfront; while access to Hwy 401, and to the 412 to connect to the 407, are also short drives away.

Whitby has a lively and vibrant arts and culture scene that includes art galleries, museums, and theatres. There are also plenty of sports and recreation activities that residents can take part in year-round.
Whitby, due to its close proximity to Toronto, is home to many commuters. It offers a more affordable option to big city living.
Whitby is named after the seaport town of the same name in Yorkshire, England. The original name “Whitby” is Danish, and translates to “White Village”.
Whitby’s natural harbor along Lake Ontario was an important aspect to trade and early settlement. In particular, the transportation of grain from farmland relied upon this route.
Of interest to note is that during World War II, Whitby was the location of Camp X, a secret spy training facility.
Although statistically classified as being in the Durham region, Whitby is often referred to as part of the Greater Toronto Area because of its close proximity and due to the fact that it houses many commuters.
The town of Whitby offers a variety of options for recreation. From parks, trails, beaches, picnic areas, skateboard parks and splash pads, there is something for the whole family to enjoy.
Whitby combines a small town feel but offers all the amenities of a much larger urban centre. If you enjoy the arts scene there are plenty of opportunities to experience live theatre, a museum or other cultural events. If you love organic and local produce, be sure to discover the seasonal farmer’s market that takes place in Whitby.
