A beautiful corner property surrounded by manicured hedges, filled with mature trees and greenery, and nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac within Pickering’s highly sought-after Amberlea neighbourhood - welcome to 500 Driftwood Court.
An interlocking walkway to the double front entrance enhances the already exceptional curb appeal of this well-maintained four bedroom, four bathroom brick home - which opens with a spacious ceramic-tiled foyer and reception area finished with crown moldings, illuminated by crystal chandeliers, and having French door entries into the formal dining room, the kitchen, and the formal living room.
A large south-facing bay window with front yard views floods natural light into the living room, which showcases richly hued oak hardwood flooring that is also seen in the family and dining rooms - and this home has been freshly painted top to bottom with a light neutral colour palette, enhancing the spaciousness felt on all three finished levels.
The formal dining room also has a large bay widow - this elegant entertaining space showcasing a vintage-style crystal chandelier with a ceiling medallion that brings an aura of grandeur to the room.
The reception area’s ceramic flooring is continued into the kitchen and its breakfast room, which are additionally brightened with diffused light through their windows and sliding door walk-out. Beautifully updated - the kitchen showcases white cabinetry with abundant storage; subway-tiled back splashes and new quartz counters; as well as a new stainless steel under mount sink with an over-the-sink strainer, a new stove and dishwasher, and a newer side-by-side fridge/freezer. The kitchen also has a French door entry into the formal dining room for entertaining convenience, and the sliding door walk-out opens onto a large entertaining deck that enjoys copious amounts of natural light afforded by the backyard’s north- and west-facing exposures.
The family room encompasses two distinct spaces - upon entry is a light-washed sitting room with a west-facing exposure that can also be used as a home office, while the second entertaining room features windows with backyard views flanking a fireplace with a gorgeous oak mantle and stone hearth - and with both spaces having the added charm of vintage-style light fixtures.
The main level also features a laundry room with a washer and dryer, cabinetry and closet storage, a secondary side entrance, and access to the double car garage; plus a powder room updated with a new vanity, and a double coat closet; while curving gracefully to the upper level is a beautiful oak hardwood staircase - this level also showcasing richly hued oak hardwood flooring throughout, crown moldings in the hallway, as well as four spacious bedrooms, two washrooms, and a double linen closet.
The hallway is open to the foyer and reception area below, with a second storey south-facing window at its mezzanine for added natural brightness - and both the third and fourth bedrooms also have large south-facing windows in addition to double-sized closets, and each can accommodate sitting or study areas, as well. The main 4-pc washroom features a ceramic-tiled floor and bath area, and a vanity with ample toiletry storage - while the second bedroom overlooks the backyard, and has a double-sized closet, as well as space for a sitting or study area.
Quite generous in its size - the master suite has very spacious lounge and sleep areas, and also showcases three large windows along its north wall for abundant natural lighting, crown moldings, and an elegant candelabra chandelier. This exceptional retreat also has two walk-in closets, and an ensuite washroom with ceramic finishes throughout, a shower area with glass door, as well as a step-up corner jetted tub.
Fully finished, and having potential for full conversion into an incredibly spacious in-law suite - the lower level has a 3-pc washroom with a walk-in shower area; has a very large storage room in addition to a separate cold room; and features this home’s second kitchen, which has tiled back splashes, more than ample counter work space and cabinetry storage, a stainless steel sink, and includes a fridge and stove - with both the kitchen and the massive recreation area updated with wide plank flooring.
Close to Highbush Public, St. Elizabeth Seton Catholic Elementary, Dunbarton High, and St. Mary Catholic Secondary Schools; the Amberlea Shopping Centre; the Altona Forest; as well as a wide variety of shops, restaurants, and services along Kingston Road - 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.
