172 Laurier Rd

Welcome to 172 Laurier Road, the home with so many rare features you'll be hard pressed to find a comparable home in Timberlea. This 1418 sq.ft. bungalow built in 2002 sits on an 8621 sq.ft. corner lot close to schools, shopping and bus routes. Walking into the front door, you're greeted by open concept living room, kitchen and dining. Cozy up in front of the gas fireplace in the living room on cool winter nights, or enjoy the A/C on a hot summer day. The kitchen has both an island AND a peninsula with so much storage space, which includes the built in wall of pantry cabinets, that you'll never run out of room for your pots and pans. Located in the first pantry cupboard is the central vac with attachments conveniently stowed away for easy access. The kitchen also includes newer vinyl plank flooring, a theme that runs through this home with updated vinyl plank in the main floor bathroom (which has been completely renovated), ensuite (also updated) and throughout the basement. Upstairs there are three bedrooms total including the primary bedroom that has walk-in closet, 3 piece ensuite and is big enough for a king size bed and all your dressers. There is walk-out access to the back yard from the dining area where you'll find your own fully-fenced private oasis. The large composite deck was installed in 2021 and you'll also find a storage shed for all your gardening tools as well as a fire pit to share stories around. Heading downstairs, you'll notice all the flooring including the stairs themselves are new. This home includes a two bedroom LEGAL basement suite but still gives the owners a large rec room of their own separate from the suite to enjoy. The legal suite has its own laundry, central vac, bathroom and living room. You'll love the unique winding hallway that leads from the separate entrance to the suite, something you won't see many other places. The downstairs bathroom also has in-floor heating, a welcomed feature for the tiled floor. Now let's get to one of the rarest features of this home - a SECOND DOUBLE GARAGE! That's right, along with the attached heated double garage there's a second garage around the side of the house that has 10ft ceilings and 2x6 walls with a 1500 watt heater and a pellet stove. Other updates include all bathrooms and the roof was re-shingled in 2018/2019 with architectural shingles that last more than 25 years. Did we mention RV parking right in the driveway? And the NEW A/C installed in August 2022? This is an exceptional home that you won't find next door and that's waiting for its new owners to show it as much love and care as it has been shown over the years.
