38 St Cuthberts Rd

Deceivingly large red brick family home on one of South Leaside's most treasured streets. This classic Leaside home has benefited from a full gut renovation and three storey addition, enlarging the overall square footage to 2739 SF above-grade. Custom designed, it offers an expanded footprint of beautiful principal rooms and the kitchen/breakfast room/family room addition that families covet. Four big bay windows and an oversized skylight above the stairs make this home light and bright on the cloudiest of days. Solid oak hardwood floors line the main floor, pretty crown mouldings encase the formal dining room, and three fireplaces add comfort in the winter. The kitchen was custom crafted with astounding amounts of storage and counterspace, and has a tandem connection to the breakfast room that overlooks the garden. An excellent home for everyday entertaining, the family room is centered to a wood-burning fireplace (with a gas line should you wish, instead), is recessed into one of the four bay windows, and equipped with built-in storage and a concealed television niche. On the second floor, three huge bedrooms await, all with ensuite bathroom access. The primary bedroom astounds with vaulted ceilings, a large walk-in closet with customized storage, and a huge 5-piece ensuite with soaring ceilings and a skylight feature. The two additional bedrooms each have fabulous storage and space for dressers and desks, and share access to a five-piece semi-ensuite between them. Bonus feature: a laundry chute connects to the laundry room in the lower level! The basement is huge with over 1400 additional square feet. A true guest suite (or teenager pad) has a three-piece ensuite, there is a wrapping room, a home office, a huge rec room, an additional bathroom and laundry. You must see this space in person to appreciate the long-term option it provides Leaside families. Corner lot on a dead-end street for kids to ride bikes and scooters. Walk to Rolph Rd PS, multiple local daycares, and all of the fabulous village-like shops on Bayview. Big-box shopping on Laird, weekend park visits at Trace Manes, Sandy Bruce Park or the local schoolyards. An incredible community awaits!
