Welcome to 23 Dougall Drive, a 3+2 bedroom executive home situated within the rural splendour of Otonabee-South Monaghan. The home is nestled on just under 1.75 acres, on a cul-de-sac with only three other homes - in a quiet community of other fine homes also with estate-sized lots.
Set back from the street, there is exceptional frontage - and the expansive backyard is surrounded by majestic trees, has abundant play and gardening space, and a fire pit. Within the backyard is wrought iron fencing surrounding the pool and patio area. This great family and entertaining space features a covered stamped concrete patio, a gazebo and storage shed, as well as an in-ground sports pool with a stone interlocking pool deck.
The home has a brick exterior, with its upper storey finished with siding; an extremely spacious two car garage with access to the backyard; landscaped gardens front and back; as well as an interlocking walkway to its covered front porch. The double front entry doors have full-sized glass panels, and natural lighting is in abundance throughout this home, with oversized windows in almost all the rooms.
Off the tiled foyer is the staircase to the upper level; a double coat closet; as well as a private home office finished with chair rail. Wide plank laminate flooring is found throughout most of the main, upper, and lower levels - and carpeting adds coziness in the living room and in the lower level rec room and bedrooms.
The formal dining room features a contemporary light fixture, a wood burning fireplace, as well as a picture window with front yard views. The living/family room is massive, has multiple exposures for maximum natural light, accent pot lighting, and the cozy warmth of a propane fireplace surrounded by floor-to-ceiling stone.
The Kitchen showcases a solid wood island with a raised bar in its breakfast space; pot lighting; cabinetry with molded uppers, a pantry, and a matching corner unit in the breakfast room; a ceramic-tiled back splash and granite counters; a stainless steel double under mount sink, dishwasher, and fridge with bottom mount freezer; a built-in wall oven and a cooktop; as well as a bar fridge - and its oversized sliding door walk-out opens to the beautiful backyard retreat.
Off the kitchen is a combined laundry, mud and powder room that has cabinetry storage, washer and dryer, access to the garage, and a walk-out to the backyard.
The upper level features three bedrooms, two washrooms, and a linen closet right outside the 4-pc washroom, which has a frosted glass window, and a tiled bath area with a mosaic accent design. The second bedroom has a mirrored door double closet, while the third bedroom has two mirrored door double closets - and both rooms are bright and quite spacious. The master bedroom is very generous in its size, and showcases a double door entry, a brick fireplace, a large dressing room with his-and-her double closets, as well as a 3-pc ensuite with a tiled floor and shower area.
The lower level offers exceptional storage space, which includes a large cold cellar off the staircase landing, as well as a massive storage room of the recreation area. This level also showcases a sauna room; a family recreation room and an adjacent games room with a wet bar, both with pot lighting and warmed by a wood stove; a 4-pc washroom; as well as two very spacious bedrooms, both with double closets and oversized windows.
This home is within the catchment areas of North Shore Public School, Monsignor O’Donoghue Catholic Elementary School, Thomas A. Stewart Secondary School, and Holy Cross Catholic Secondary School; as well as King George and Edmison Heights Public Schools, St. Anne Catholic Elementary School, Adam Scott Intermediate Public School, Adam Scott Collegiate Vocational Institute, and St. Peter Catholic Secondary School for their French Immersion programs.
This home is just a short 10 minute drive from Peterborough for everyday shopping needs; banking, professional, and medical services; a hospital; as well as entertainment and restaurants - and accessing Hwy 115 is also just a short drive away.
