LEASED! 114 Rita Avenue, St. Claire Gardens – $4,850/mth

Looking for an urban lifestyle with suburban space? Then this home with contemporary style at 114 Rita is your answer.

Sited on an incredibly scaled 100 x 90 sq ft lot, this 3850 sq ft home offers room to stretch out and relax both indoors and out. The striking exterior is sited on a corner lot and is on trend with lush landscaping, courtesy of John Szczepaniak.

Interesting exterior details add depth to this property from the hand-forged wall mounted numbers at the entry to the sleek stainless handrails.

Across the threshold, you are welcomed into a large and spacious foyer with tall ceilings. The vestibule offers a large coat closet with plenty of space and shelving permitting storage for outerwear for guests and family. The open staircase features stainless pickets and railings.

Large soft toned tile leads to the open concept living space. Big windows allow natural light to flood the interior and highlight the gleaming light-toned wood floors that are of the highest quality including a custom kitchen designed and fabricated by Deslaurier and features an abundance of storage with island and breakfast bar.

The family room at the rear is generous with ample space for everyone. Easy access to the inspirational gardens designed by well-known landscape architect John Szczepaniak, allows for relaxed and private outdoor entertainment. The outdoor living room features Szczepaniak’s signature element of tall grasses that gently move with warm summer breezes and define a wonderful outdoor space where everyone can relax.

The second level of this home is the private space and designed with the dreams of every family. Four generously scaled bedrooms each with a walk-in closet and separate ensuite eliminates the need for debate with children over who gets the room with the bath! The second level also offers a large open additional family space currently used as an office. It may be an ideal spot for a family lounge, gym or yoga space. The master on this level is very private and tucked quietly into the rear and offers a private lounge area off of the bedroom; an inviting spot to read and escape. The ensuite is generous and well appointed with a luxurious shower, tub and double vanities, all finished with the same quality using high-end fixtures and finishes that Doncaster Construction’s clients have come to expect.

There is still additional living space on the lower level that is ideal for a home theatre and games area and the remaining space can be used for storage.

The piece-de-resistance of this property with all of the other benefits is the opportunity that car collectors drool over; a 700 sq ft heated garage with 12 ft ceilings. The addition of red cedar storage cubbies on the exterior side wall of this home next to the garage eliminates any need for Dad’s cars to be scratched by bikes, boards or lawn equipment. This space is a totally dedicated collector’s haven right in your own garage.

This home is an excellent opportunity for you and your family to live in an urban environment but not trade off on space or style. St. Claire Gardens is quickly evolving into a neighbourhood, dotted with new and architecturally interesting homes including timeless Arts and Craft style, modern cubists, as well as traditional upscale and revived cottages.
This location is proximal to bike trails, Algonquin College, the 417 and a walk to local shopping and minutes to the Hill.

Don’t miss out on a fabulous opportunity to make this beautiful custom home your own family retreat. Available for lease immediately.
