Welcome to this custom-designed bungalow located on a premium lot in the desirable McLaughlin-Thornton Ridge neighbourhood. Creatively planned for those who value space, natural light, and versatile living, the open-concept living area has a dramatic cathedral ceiling and a skylight. Engineered hardwood flooring, generous windows, and a gas fireplace create a comfortable setting for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, and an oversized centre island which offers an abundant workspace, a comfortable family dining space, and generous below counter storage. Two spacious bedrooms occupy the main level, including a primary retreat with a distinctive barn-style door, and a walk-out to the deck. The spa-like main bathroom (9.5' X 8') features a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, separate soaker tub, and skylight. Multiple walkouts extend the living space outdoors to 2 decks, plus a private rear yard with two garden sheds, a hardtop gazebo, and two gas BBQ outlets - an inviting setting for summer get-togethers. The finished lower level is equally impressive, offering a bright two-bedroom in-law suite with its own living area with kitchen, laundry, gas fireplace, and a private walkout. Adding another layer of versatility, the heated and air-conditioned garage is currently configured as a sales shop and can readily serve as a studio, workshop, or other home-based business (or could be converted back to a garage). With convenient access to Highways 401 & 407, Durham College, Ontario Tech University, Lakeridge Health, shopping, schools, and transit, this is a rare opportunity to combine easy bungalow living with genuine flexibility.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fair Market Value
At $909/sqft, this property is priced in line with current Oshawa 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 28 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 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.
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 Oshawa. Good resale value as demand remains consistent.
About McLaughlin
I know McLaughlin 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: Oshawa properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $4,167 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
