This newly-listed $7 million Ontario home, which rests on an immaculately landscaped 20,000 sq. ft. lot, is located in one of the most sought-after neighbourhoods in the entire GTA.
One look inside, and you’ll understand why.
Occupying an expansive 11,000 sq. ft. footprint, 1370 Oak Lane is the definition of “bigger is better,” boasting soaring ceilings, vast windows and a number of spacious bedrooms, all with a timeless-yet-current design.
The great room.
The home — or, mansion, if you prefer,— is located in Mississauga’s Lorne Park, which was once developed as a summer resort community for Ontario’s well-to-do thanks to its proximity to Lake Ontario and its breathtaking nature.
It has since gone on to become one of the GTA’s most desirable postal codes, and 1370 Oak Lane is living proof of why.
Living room.
While the home itself employs a classic design style, it also incorporates a number of contemporary features that keep it feeling fresh, like the largely open-concept floorplan on the ground floor, which includes a sprawling living room with direct access to much of the level.
Home office.
Similar to the living room, which is just a stone’s throw away, the home office is a sublime retreat, boasting floor-to-ceiling windows and a direct walkout to the yard that gives a sense of total immersion into nature.
If you have the type of job that allows you to afford a place like this, I imagine that this sort of serenity may come in handy from time to time.
Kitchen.
The kitchen, too, gives a sense of calm while not being over-the-top.
But, featuring high-end Calacatta quartz countertops, top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances and a large island, the whispers of luxury are still very much there.
Just off the kitchen, you’ll also find a butler’s pantry and a double-door walkout to the backyard’s covered patio, all of which add to the main level’s desirability as a place for entertaining.
Family room.
An additional family room provides a cozy retreat for more intimate gatherings and casual nights in, with a quaint gas fireplace and slightly more enclosed design.
Dining room.
The sprawling, 300 sq. ft. dining room is an equally desirable space for entertaining, offering ample space for a large table or sides and a sleek, serene design.
In-law suite.
As if that weren’t enough for surprises on the main floor, here you’ll also find a decadent in-law suite with a devoted sitting room, ensuite and bedroom.
Whether you actually have in-laws or not, you have to agree that it’s a pretty sweet — or, should I say, suite — setup.
Primary bedroom.
Upstairs, the primary bedroom is truly fit for royalty, which, if you’ve managed to secure this real estate gem, you actually might be.
It features lofty, bright ceilings, a direct walk-out to a private balcony that overlooks the backyard and a generous 120 sq. ft. walk-in closet with custom built-ins.
Primary ensuite.
The primary ensuite is nothing to snuff at, either, featuring regal mirroring and marble accents, an enormous shower, a standalone tub and his-and-hers vanities.
Another bathroom.
In fact, each of the home’s eight bathrooms deserve their flowers, all bearing impeccable attention to detail and a commitment to design motifs that flow throughout the house.
A bedroom.
Each of the home’s bedrooms, of which there are a total of five above grade and one below, comes equipped with its own ensuite bathroom and walk-in closet.
At their equally agreeable sizes, this means that no one ever gets the short end of the stick when it comes to sleeping arrangements.
The basement.
Downstairs, the basement offers 3800 square feet of below-grade living and recreational space, which includes a full wet bar, a built-in wine rack that’s an aspiring sommelier’s dream, a nanny suite and a theatre room.
So, really, all you could possibly ever want.
The gym.
Not so fast, though! If you were thinking to yourself: “What if I want a gym in my basement, though?” Not to worry; it also has one of those.
The porch.
Remember what I said about this home having serious entertaining potential? The outdoor spaces, like the covered deck which features a built-in fireplace and barbeque as well as a TV mount, only further prove that hypothesis.
The home also boasts a three-car garage and a private elevator, just in case you needed a little something extra to sweeten the deal.
