With 3,302 sq ft of refined family living plus a finished lower level in one of Taunton's most convenient North Oshawa pockets. Set on a 44.29 x 109.91 ft lot, this detached 2-storey is designed for households that need room to gather, retreat, host, work, and grow without compromise. From the moment you enter, the home offers a polished sense of arrival with 9-ft ceilings, hardwood flooring, crown moulding, wainscotting, pot lighting, and a waffle ceiling that brings architectural presence to the main level. Formal living and dining rooms give celebrations their place, while the family room with gas fireplace and built-in wall unit/bookshelves offers a more relaxed setting for everyday connection. At the centre of the home, the chef's kitchen, updated in 2018, brings daily life into focus with granite counters, generous prep space, a breakfast area, and an easy connection to the family room. A dedicated main-floor office adds quiet function for work, study, or planning. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms give everyone their own place to exhale, led by a composed primary retreat with a custom made walk-in closet and 5pc ensuite. The secondary bedrooms offer ensuite or semi-ensuite access, a thoughtful detail for busy mornings and growing families. The finished basement extends the home with 3 bedrooms, a rec room, 4pc bath, laminate flooring, and potlights, creating meaningful flexibility for extended family, guests, teenagers, hobbies, or multi-use living. Outside, a landscaped backyard with patio space, hard-top gazebo, shed, exterior pot lighting, double garage, and private drive completes the home with both polish and practicality. Minutes to parks, trails, recreation, shopping, dining, transit, Oshawa GO connections, and Hwy 407, this is a home that supports the full rhythm of family life.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $333/sqft, this is priced below the area average. This could represent genuine value, but let's investigate why. In my experience, underpriced homes often have deferred maintenance, unfavourable layouts, or motivated sellers. I'll help you determine which it is.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Oshawa 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.
Larger Home Realities
At 3,000 sqft, this is a substantial home. Budget approximately $400-600/month more for utilities compared to an average-sized home. Maintenance costs scale with size too - roof, HVAC, and cleaning all cost more. That said, space is a luxury that's hard to add later, and larger homes often have better resale in family-oriented neighbourhoods.
Excellent Flexibility
With 7 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Oshawa.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 5 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.
