Welcome to a "Home & Garden" on a T-Shape of 1/2 ACRE Lot (21033.50 sq. ft). This is an elegant gem hidden by the lush front garden and set against a manicured back garden with an abundance of shrubs, plants, flowers, and trees, creating a cottage-like atmosphere, where privacy, peace and tranquility prevail. The house was renovated and extended with excellence in aesthetics, function, and structure. The materials are of good quality, including top-of-the-line windows and doors. The layout is spacious and imaginative, with high ceilings, including the basement, with a series of skylights. The enormous living and TV area is lit by large windows, as are other parts of the house, where careful thoughts were given to light and shade. The dining area is the strategic center of interest, as from here one can enjoy the colourful garden during summer and a Christmas wonderland during winter. The modern kitchen with a large natural quartz countertop is served by high-quality appliances. On the upper floor, the bedrooms are of good size and well finished. The basement floor is insulated. The garage is fully insulated, providing enhanced temperature control and protection for vehicles. A new furnace was installed in 2025, and the attic has R60 insulation. This magnificent home has been meticulously maintained and upgraded by the owners over the years. Conveniently located near grocery stores, restaurants, banks, primary and high schools and private Montessori school, and also within 10 minutes drive to Rosebank Station, Rouge Beach, Conservation Park and Bay /west Park. With a land area of 21033.50 sq. ft. and the existing house has 2,800 sq. ft. (excluding the finished basement), there is room for further extension, provided it is in compliance with the Planning & Building Bylaw. In addition, a separate bungalow with about 1,600 sq. ft. that has a connection to the main house is permissible. ** Drone views are marked up for ref. and a couple of pics are virtually staged.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fair Market Value
At $915/sqft, this property is priced in line with current Pickering market conditions. The pricing suggests the seller has done their homework. We may have modest room for negotiation, typically 2-4% in today's market.
Market Position
At 16 days on site, this property has had reasonable exposure. It hasn't sold immediately (which often indicates overpricing), but isn't languishing either. There's likely room for a 3-5% negotiation from asking price.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Pickering are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Family-Friendly Layout
4 bedrooms hits the sweet spot for most families. You'll have room for 2-3 children plus a home office or guest room. This is the most sought-after configuration for families relocating to Pickering. Good resale value as demand remains consistent.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 4 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
