27 Bridlewood Road - Bridgwater Forest
Selling Price: $550,143 Plus GST and Land
Type: Bungalow
Wow, bright! This is the first thing I thought when entering this home. It is refreshing to see light coloured walls everywhere. There are some white walls but also light taupe colours on the doors, baseboards, and other walls. This home is very spacious and very open in design.
I love the white cupboards in the kitchen with a few light coloured maple cabinets just for a little contrast. There is a two-sided fireplace between the living area and the four season sunroom. What a great place to escape in the winter and get plenty of light from all the windows and warmth from the fireplace.
The master bedroom in this bungalow is huge with an ensuite with heated floors, which feels so good! There is also a big shower stall with three small windows for extra light. I love the his and her walk-ins closets with the wooden shelves. I prefer the wood instead of the white wire ones you typically see in homes.
The basement is not done in this home but I know that there are 9ft ceilings which will make the finished basement seem that much more bigger upon completion. The staircase going down to the basement has glass on it and provides openness going down the stairs.
You need to go see this home today!

11 Hunterbrook Road - Bridgwater Forest
Selling Price: $742,680 Plus GST and Land
Type: Bungalow
As you approach the front of this house, you cannot help but admire the beautiful white stone that covers the front. This is a subtle hint about what you are going to see in this gorgeous bungalow. As you open the front door, you cannot help but to say “Wow!” The ceilings soar above you and feel like they go on forever. The hallway is bigger than one of my bedrooms in my own house. To the front of the house is an enormous room that could be a bedroom or an office. If I lived here I can imagine daily calls to my boss telling him that I would be working from home. With floor to ceiling windows natural light just floods in and lifts your mood.
The dining room is enormous as well. There is enough room to put a huge table in here and comfortably seat 12 or more people comfortably with room to spare.
The full bathroom is very unique. The faucets to the vanity are in the wall.
Off the mudroom is a very large laundry room. In my native
Down the hall you pass another bedroom and then on to the master suite. This house just goes on and on. As you walk into the master bedroom, there’s that word again “Wow!” This is a very elegant room befitting of the type of person that would live here. With views of the lake to the rear waking up in the morning will never be a problem. The ensuite has a huge soaker tub and a very unique shower. There are three shower heads at different levels to make sure you are gloriously massaged. The vanity is huge, not surprising, the walk in closet has more than enough room to store both my husband’s and my four season wardrobes.
Back in the kitchen, there is a lovely curved island. All the cabinets have soft close doors and luxurious granite counters.
The great room also has fantastic views to the lake at the back. There is even a sun room that leads to a small balcony.
Here we go again. Walking down to the basement “Wow” There is a huge rec room with a walk out to the back yard and a three sided fireplace. There is a built in bar area with granite counters. The media room gives a new meaning to movie night. There are two further bedrooms, a fitness room and a full bath. Let’s be honest, this basement is bigger than most people’s houses!
There is so much to say about this house that you just have to go and see it. It certainly has given me aspirations of living here.

160 Perfanick Drive - Bridgewood Estates
Selling Price: $407,743 Plus GST and Land
Type: Bungalow
This Bentley Homes bungalow is definitely a specially conceived and designed home. From its dramatic grand entrance with a vaulted ceiling and twelve windows looking out on Perfanick Drive. Prospective buyers can read over the entire list of this house’s specifications about all the building supplies used, the insulation used, details on the type of windows used and the plumbing and electric al fittings. That information is very important to many buyers who want to know as much as possible about the house and how it was built.
This home is a two storey, stucco, five bedroom, three bathroom home with special features including a four-season sun room at the rear of the living space - just off the great room, dining room and kitchen. All ceilings are 9 feet making it feel especially spacious. The galley kitchen has all the ultra modern appliances, gorgeous granite counter tops, a walk-in pantry and opens to the dining room and great room. Must not forget the fireplace that is shared between the 4 season sun room and the living room.
On the main level are the master bedroom and ensuite and two smaller bedrooms and a full bathroom. The large windows of this space look out on the backyard and what is currently a stand of some birch trees. The ensuite bathroom has a truly space-age combination bathtub-shower system enclosed in a circular glassed in corner. It includes a steam shower, a large tub with 3 head rests, a foot massager, a rain shower from its ceiling, a hand held shower, a sound system (for music) and a cell phone. Definitely unique!
The lower level is fully finished and is like a separate living space. Because the bungalow is built with the basement raised, it has very large windows around the perimeter of the living space. It has another kitchen with generous counter space and a raised bar area and a fridge and sink perfect for social occasions and family gatherings. There are two more bedrooms downstairs - both of which are a generous size (one even has a walk-in closet) and they share a full bathroom with double sinks. There is a very roomy seating area with a built-in entertainment unit and a long, luxurious leather sofa and big, cozy chair. But wait, there is still room for a very large table with eight chairs. The utility room is stowed away - off to the side of the basement and will be the location of a washer, dryer, freezer and storage.

26 Yacht’s Cove - Van Hull Estates
Selling Price: $673,333 Plus GST and Land
Type: Bungalow
This home sets itself apart from the other homes on the street because of the shape of the exterior. It looks very modern. When entering the home you will notice the high ceiling which is 14 feet high. It makes the house look even more grand than it is.
The kitchen/living area is my favourite part of the house because it has a red caeser stone countertop against grey cabinets. Now that’s different! Then there is a wet bar across from the kitchen, against a wall, with the same countertop and cabinet colour. The punch of red in the kitchen and throughout the house, (ie: red ottoman, vases, etc), makes it very appealing to me because I love red! This house has an open concept so it looks very spacious, but the amount of windows in the home really brightens up the space making it seem even bigger. There are 79 windows throughout this house so if you like bright, this is the home for you! (I did not count the windows, the agent gave me this info!)
This home also has a four seasons sunroom with a fireplace. The fireplace is two-sided and spills into the family room which is next to the dining room. I love the idea of the two-sided fireplace because it makes it useful in more than one area and if you love to keep warm in the winter this is good!
Other things I liked about this home was the huge walk-in closet. Everyone needs a good storage area like this for wardrobe and shoes etc. It makes your daily life more easier when everything is organized. I also liked the cute chandeliers in the ensuite. Little things like this really add a nice touch to the décor of the home. The ensuite also included two sinks for a couple to be able to get ready in the morning together, without having to wait to use the sink for washing up.
In summary, I would definitely encourage people to go see this home because of its small but unique features.
