Exclusive West Hillhurst location! This Lodge-style raised Bungalow is a custom gem, tucked into a 4-home street, attention to every detail. FUN FACT: LOWER loss and usage cost than "Efficient Homes" via Enmax Energy - GREAT! Enter from the restaurant-sized BBQ verandah with gas line, OR the accessible separate walk-out entry at the covered drive pad to RARE DOUBLE ATTACHED GARAGE! Complete with a $20k wood-burning Nordic Lodge for all seasons, this beautiful Bungalow is a dream to come home to. The complete renovation starts from the open concept Living, Dining and Kitchen, with gorgeous dark hardwood, a full-stone wood burning fireplace, glossy contemporary white cabinets custom-designed with pot-pan drawers, high end gas stove, chimney hood, bottom-freezer fridge, undermount crushed stone sink, granite counters and beautiful updated windows overlooking the quiet street/hillside and natural landscaped rear yard. Side exit out the patio doors is a dog run OR your morning coffee retreat - huge side yard area! Wood and iron railings lead a few steps down to the 2 private (and king-sized) bedrooms, 1.5 upgraded bathrooms - the Primary room being vaulted, and including ensuite, walk-in closet and personal rear balcony-deck out double garden doors. The fully developed lower level includes a 3rd guest room with second 4 piece bathroom, stainless-steel central laundry with storage, and the recreation/home office area has a second wood burning fireplace, luxury vinyl plank floors and the separate walk-out exit to the covered courtyard-slash-drive/RV pad - seriously every requirement is met in this versatile layout! Finally, toward the finished double-attached Garage is a comfortable mud room equipped with hanging rack and hooks, 5th entry/exit and the furnace room has the 5 year old instant tankless water heater, furnace with lots of years left, newer water softener and there is a vacu-flo system connected via the Garage. Roof, soffit etc are only 11.5 years old. A garden shed and yet another seating area with exterior firepit round off the natural environment are adjacent to the double garage - the steps-down retaining wall area has previously been manicured and would not take much to be brought back to summer perfection (see 2016 photos!). This home should not be missed and will not last long!
