Timeless character meets European-inspired sophistication at 505 Burlington Avenue. Set on a large, private lot along one of downtown Burlington's most desirable streets, this beautifully renovated residence offers a calming retreat just a short stroll from restaurants, boutiques, parks and the waterfront. Thoughtfully reimagined throughout by a highly regarded Toronto designer, the interiors blend clean lines, custom millwork and a cohesive palette to create an atmosphere of understated elegance. A classic covered front porch introduces the home, while the open main level offers inviting spaces for everyday living and entertaining. The dining room is anchored by a gas fireplace, and the family room opens to a covered rear porch overlooking the extensively landscaped grounds. A custom Scavolini kitchen features an incredible travertine countertop and backsplash accented perfectly by a stunning white Corian island, induction cooktop and beverage bar. A dedicated office with Scavolini cabinetry, mudroom and powder room complete the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite is a serene escape with a walk-in closet, private garden-facing balcony and an expansive, spa-like five-piece ensuite. Two additional bedrooms, a beautifully renovated three-piece bathroom and upper-level laundry provide comfort and convenience. The lower level offers a walk-up entrance, full kitchen, fireside living area, separate laundry area, bedroom and three-piece bathroom, creating a welcoming space for extended family or an in law suite. Outside, lush landscaping, a hot tub and multiple entertaining spots, create an intimate setting for unwinding. The detached garage offers possibilities for a yoga or fitness space, an art studio or a home for a cherished vehicle, complemented by ample driveway parking for 6+ cars. A thoughtfully designed home where privacy, character and the pleasures of downtown living come together.
