Come home to breathtaking lake views, golden sunsets, and the gentle rhythm of nature all around you. Watch swans and geese glide past, take off and land on the water, and listen to birdsong as the seasons unfold around you. This bright and spacious Swan Lake Village Kingfisher bungaloft brings that experience into the heart of the home, with the lake at the centre of the main-floor living and dining spaces and a broad bank of windows bringing the surrounding landscape into the primary bedroom. Two separate sliding glass doors open from the living room to the large, lake-facing terrace, creating a breathtaking connection to the outdoors and allowing natural lake breezes in when desired. Abundant windows-including the additional side windows of this end-unit Kingfisher-fill the home with natural light and frame mature trees and greenery from virtually every room. California-style shutters adorn the main-floor windows, complemented by power-operated roller shades on the living-room sliding doors. The main floor offers comfortable one-level living with an inviting living and dining area, an eat-in kitchen with its own separate garden-view deck, a separate den, laundry, and primary bedroom with 4-piece ensuite. Upstairs, the open loft overlooks the main living area and leads to a second bedroom with 3-piece ensuite. The exceptionally finished lower level adds generous recreation/lounge space with a gas fireplace, wet bar, 4-piece bath, flexible bonus room with a Western Red Cedar-lined closet, and abundant storage. French doors open to a ground-level interlocking patio, providing another private outdoor sitting area. Additional features include a power-retractable awning, double attached garage, and central vacuum. Enjoy the unique lifestyle of Swan Lake Village with its lake, walking paths, pools, fitness and social facilities, tennis, pickleball, and bocce. Flexible possession.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $695/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.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Markham's current market, desirable homes often receive multiple offers within 5-7 days. If you're seriously interested, I recommend booking a showing immediately. However, never let urgency override due diligence - we'll still do proper inspections.
Condo Considerations
For condos, I always review the status certificate thoroughly. Key things I look for: reserve fund health (should be well-funded), any upcoming special assessments, rules that might affect your lifestyle (pets, rentals, renovations), and the corporation's financial statements. The $1237/month fees should cover building insurance, common elements, and reserve contributions.
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.
About Greensborough
I know Greensborough well from working with many buyers and sellers here. Each pocket has its own character - let me share what I've learned about this specific street and block. During our showing, I'll point out local amenities, school catchments, and what similar homes have sold for recently.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Markham properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $5,792 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
