Nestled on a pie-shaped corner lot with 144’ of frontage across from the serenity of a ravine setting, within the heart of East Pickering’s sought-after Brock Ridge community, welcome to 2319 Wildwood Crescent - a beautiful four bedroom stone heritage home with three washrooms that has the distinction of being the starting point of this neighbourhood, and protected under the Ontario Heritage Act.
The original homestead was built during the 1850s, with an addition added some years later, and is an example of Gothic Revival architecture - built with a unique, and now rarely used, mixture of 2’ thick stones including raw crystal, granite, gneiss, quartz, and basalt, amongst others.
The driveway can accommodate parking for up to twelve vehicles, and while offering exceptional living space as a single family home - the interior layout is flexible, allowing for use as a two-unit dwelling with separate entrances.
As it wraps around the home, the custom spiral stone walkway winds its way to the north entrance - which has been painted a bold red colour, as have all the exterior doors. The professionally landscaped gardens are filled with a mix of herbs, perennials, and shrubs - including a row of rose of Sharon flowering shrubs…and as you pass the arbour along the south walkway, in front of the south main entrance is a charming sitting area under the shade of a magnolia tree.
The entire main level has been updated with wide plank hardwood flooring, and beyond the foyer is a generously sized living room that has a painted brick accent feature and wall sconces on its east wall - this space having two distinct entertaining rooms, both with pot lighting.
Off the living room is a 3-pc washroom; and to the left of the foyer, upon entry, is the spacious eat-in kitchen.
Brightened with pot lighting and a modern light fixture, the kitchen showcases a subway-tiled back splash wall; a stainless fridge/freezer, range hood, as well as a range with dual ovens and granite counters on each side; contemporary cabinetry; and a large peninsula with a front load dryer, a stainless steel double sink, and breakfast seating - and the windows here, as well as throughout the entire home, are characteristic of the era, almost all of them having deep ledges.
The updated hardwood staircase to the upper level has a both a wrought iron railing and wood hand rails - this level featuring two closets off the upper landing, three bedrooms, a washroom, as well as pot lighting and wood flooring throughout.
The bedroom directly off the landing has a vaulted ceiling that is partially wood-panelled, and papered faux brick accent walls; and at the north end of the hallway is the entrance into the 4-pc washroom.
The master bedroom has a distinct space dedicated to the double closet and its dressing area - the ceiling being vaulted, and the bedroom having ample space for a sitting area.
The south-facing hallway nook makes a great reading area - and the third bedroom features a mostly pine-panelled ceiling and a walk-in closet.
The north wing of the home has potential for full conversion into a second unit - and showcases an open concept room with wainscoting, crown moldings, and a wood panelled ceiling; a wood counter with an induction cooktop and a stainless steel sink; as well as a decorative fireplace - with its washroom featuring a front load washer, a glass shower, and a modern vanity.
This section’s north entrance opens to the outdoor front gardens - and at the end of the driveway is a pergola creating an outdoor patio area that can be exclusive to the north wing unit.
A pine staircase carries to the loft - which has pine finishes including a vaulted ceiling with two candelabra chandeliers, the flooring, and the organizers within the walk-in closet.
In the backyard, stone walkways wind their way through this outdoor retreat, which is surrounded by mature trees. There is a treehouse with a play structure; perennials lining the southeast walkway; and a huge sun deck - this property also having just over 1,000 sq. ft. of buildable land for an addition, approved (conditional upon submission of architectural drawings) by the Heritage Committee.
Between the sun deck and the studio is a greenhouse garden and an outdoor warm shower - the detached yoga studio featuring a wall-to-wall mirror, a vaulted cedar ceiling, and a rough-in for a washroom. The studio is suitable for any type of home-based business, as well as for conversion into an accessory dwelling unit.
This home is 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.
