Situated on a quiet street close to lots of parks and schools, this 2-storey detached home in Temple is a one-off chance to update this well-designed family home to make it your unique dream home!

Thoughtfully designed to accommodate family life, this home features a functional layout with over 1,945 square feet of living space above grade and an additional 879 square foot partially developed basement below – ready and waiting for your keen eye to finish the area just for you.

Well-cared-for through the years, this home features many attractive characteristics you won’t find in a new build. Through the entryway, you’re immediately greeted by the beautiful open-spindle staircase with views of an upper bonus room and formal living room with a Cathedral-like window – providing a grand entrance to the home. This level features tons of natural light, vintage designer lighting, and spacious primary living areas with original oak and clean plush carpet.

At the rear of the house, the spacious kitchen is truly the heart of the home. Completely redone only ten years ago, this kitchen provides more cabinets than you’ll know what to do with (including highly-coveted lower drawers)! A large window above the sink overlooks the backyard, and the wrap-around counter gives you plenty of prep and gadget space. A dedicated breakfast area offers views into the kitchen and family room and is the perfect spot for casual meals or weekend card games with the kids. Next to the breakfast area, you'll find glass sliding doors to take you out to the back patio – perfect for making BBQing all year long convenient!

The cozy family room is flooded with natural light through two large windows spanning the room's length and centers on a wood-burning fireplace with a stone surround. On the other wall, an original oak panel wall makes the space even more eye-catching!

For dinner parties and larger gatherings, the formal dining room located just around the corner from the kitchen has space for a full-sized table and seating to accommodate eight-plus guests. The formal dining room also opens to the bright front living room, which features soaring vaulted ceilings and views of the quiet street through the beautiful Cathedral-like window.

Across the foyer, past the open spindle staircase, is a private laundry, powder room, and mudroom area that sits just off the attached front garage. This area will keep your family tidy and organized thanks to multiple closets, upper cabinetry, and easy-to-clean lino.

A bonus room on the upper floor overlooks the living room and allows for plentiful natural light through the gigantic Cathedral window and its own large window. A wet bar, or coffee bar, features open display shelving, lower cabinets, and a sink for easy entertaining or an excellent place for making a hot tea while cuddling up with your favourite book.

The rest of the second floor hosts three sizable bedrooms and two full bathrooms – including the spacious master with a 4-piece ensuite and a second bedroom with a lovely rooftop balcony overlooking the lush, green community.

Downstairs, the partially-developed basement features an additional bedroom and an already roughed-in bathroom. Use your keen design eye to complete this space – the options are endless with what you can do!

But wait, we haven’t even stepped foot outside yet! This home is truly made complete with an extra-large, flat, fully fenced backyard. There’s room for a trampoline, above-ground pool, or play place for families with kids. Or, if you have a dog of any size, this yard will offer hours of endless fetch time. A well-built deck with a decorative wood railing will host your patio furniture nicely as you enjoy your summers in this private space.

Enjoy many perks of living on this lovely, quiet street in the family-friendly community of Temple. Walk your little ones to school in the morning to Father Scollen Catholic School just 4 min away or to Annie Foote or Guy Weadlick schools, which are only 15 min away through Templegreen Park. On weekends, spend hours creating memories at the renowned Village Square Leisure Centre (only a 10 min bike ride away), which is also next door to the Lester B. Pearson High School for older kids. Shopping and amenities are also close by, with the McKnight Village Shopping Centre just across McKnight from you and Sunridge only 6 min away by car and all the shopping along 36 Street located there – including Sunridge Mall, Winners, Superstore, Safeway, Costco, and more!
