Property Description
Experience modern living at its finest in this beautifully reimagined home in Edgewater Glen. Fully gutted and expanded in 2021, the property was transformed with new roof, siding, windows, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, hardwood flooring, and a thoughtfully designed floor plan that offers incredible function and style. Since then, the owners have elevated the home even further with high-end upgrades, custom storage solutions, and sophisticated finishes throughout. The heart of the home is the expansive kitchen and entertaining space, featuring a Wolf dual-fuel range, Zephyr hood, built-in Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, Fisher & Paykel dish drawer dishwasher, a ten-foot quartz island, and abundant cabinetry. The open-concept main level is ideal for gathering, working, or relaxing, with generous living and dining areas, Farrow & Ball paint, and a smartly designed mudroom spanning the full width of the home. The mudroom includes a custom entertaining cabinet with a French-door beverage fridge and leads directly to the backyard and garage. Upstairs, the layout offers four flexible bedrooms or office options, including a large primary suite with a custom California Closets walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bath with a combined bath and shower room. Thoughtful California Closets organization continues throughout the home with extensive custom storage, including a dedicated vinyl record built-in capable of holding over 500 LPs. The finished basement provides even more versatility with a family room, full bathroom, fifth bedroom, and exceptional storage. It is an ideal retreat for guests, extended family, or a teenager seeking their own private level. The exterior spaces are just as impressive. The oversized, fully renovated garage includes spray foam insulation, custom shelving, heated interior, and a new concrete floor, making it functional year-round. The hardscaped backyard is designed for entertaining and includes multiple zones for pets, cleverly integrated into the overall landscape. Additional improvements include new backyard stonework, added trees, fresh parkway landscaping, and custom hardscape design. A significant neighborhood enhancement came in summer 2025 when this block of Granville was converted to a westbound one-way street, dramatically reducing traffic and transforming the block into a quiet, peaceful setting. Additional conveniences include dual laundry hookups on both the second floor and in the basement, dual-zone HVAC, upgraded interior and exterior paint, and custom shower glass added to all bathrooms. Walk to Whole Foods, the Edgewater Public Library, cafes, restaurants, and the Granville Red Line stop, with the lakefront and Berger Park just minutes away. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly turnkey, thoughtfully upgraded home in one of Edgewater Glen's most beloved pockets.
