ESTATE LIVING, CITY CONVENIENCE! A rare Minto-built luxury home on a sprawling 13,218 sq.ft. pie-shaped lot: south-facing, private, tree-lined, and backing onto green space in one of Barrhaven's most coveted enclaves! Built in 2008, this home - the Riverbend model - is part of Minto's luxury lineup, the Luxe series. It is defined by 3 signature features that were rare to find at the time: 9' ceilings on the main floor, an expansive open space anchored by a classic curved staircase, and TWO SUITES on the upper level. Offering approximately 4,600 sq.ft. of finished living space, the home has 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms in total. The living room and family room are joined by a two-sided gas fireplace, and the banquet-style dining room rises to an 18' open-to-above ceiling. Oversized picture windows pull natural light deep into the interior and draw the country-estate views of the backyard into the home. Finished in a transitional-traditional style with hardwood throughout, the home is anchored by a spacious gourmet kitchen, while a main-floor office, laundry room, and a mudroom add everyday practicality.The second floor offers 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths, including a primary suite with walk-in closet and a 5-piece ensuite with soaker tub, plus a second suite with raised ceilings, its own full bath, and a walk-in closet. The fully finished 9-ft walkout basement was thoughtfully designed, adding about 1,300 sq.ft. of living space with a fifth bedroom, rec/games room, home theatre, full bath, living room, kitchen, gym area, and computer nook; double doors lead to the huge backyard. Outside, enjoy the beautiful landscaping & two levels of outdoor living - a glass-railing deck above and a fully covered patio below. The fully fenced, pie-shaped backyard backs onto green space with no rear neighbours and includes a permitted oversized shed, a pergola, and a play structure, and has a full irrigation system. Steps to trails, parks, public transit, schools, and all amenities!
