Welcome to 997 North River Road. This spacious and fully renovated flat is a truly unique offering, full of natural light, tasteful finishes, and warm palette. Enjoy the benefits of condo living without sacrificing outdoor space, and bonus direct inside access via garage with TWO parking spaces, storage locker, and a beautiful private garden right through your front door. The generous 1330sqft interior features open living areas, yet well defined and versatile. A large living room flows with wood burning fireplace flows easily into dining room, and connects to the pristine and updated custom kitchen, not lacking for space and cabinetry, with high end stainless steel appliances. Also note continuous hardwood throughout, with efficient in floor radiant heating! The primary bedroom area is very well proportioned, and features custom wall to wall closets, and a large crisp en suite bathroom. The second bedroom works as an office or nice guest bedroom, with another full bathroom adjacent, nicely separated from the rest of the living space. Both the foyer and mudroom are nicely scaled and set back from the living areas, similar more to a bungalow than a condo. Direct access to the mudroom right from the first parking space is a game changer, especially in winter, and avoids the trek to a separate foyer or elevator. With beautiful southwest light exposure, and steps from Riverain Park, RSC, Strathcona footbridge, and all of your downtown amenities, this one is an easy choice. Don't miss out on this rare gem.
