In the picturesque Dundas community of Pleasant Valley sits this extraordinary custom residence offering an elevated standard of living defined by impeccable craftsmanship and timeless design. Built by McConnell Homes, this distinguished all-brick two-storey spans over 4,500+ sqft above grade, plus 2,200+ sqft of exquisitely finished living space below. A grand double-door entry introduces an opulent Bisazza Italian stone foyer, setting the tone for the elegance that unfolds throughout. A sweeping staircase, adorned with luxurious Stark wool carpeting, anchors the home with architectural grace. The principal living spaces are thoughtfully designed for both grand entertaining and intimate gatherings, featuring wire-brushed hardwood floors and an effortless flow from formal living and dining areas into the heart of the home. The chef-inspired kitchen is a culinary showpiece, appointed with premium KitchenAid appliances, bespoke cabinetry, and generous prep space. The adjoining great room is equally captivating, highlighted by a striking imported Bisazza fireplace and seamless access to a private, resort-style backyard. Upstairs, natural light pours through a dramatic skylight, illuminating a spa-inspired ensuite featuring a jacuzzi tub, separate shower, dual walk-in closets, a private office, and a secluded terrace overlooking the gardens. Three additional bedrooms and two beautifully appointed bathrooms complete the upper level. The lower level is an entertainer's dream, with a richly finished family room, fireplace, granite flooring, wet bar, private theatre, kitchenette, and guest suite with ensuite bath. Walk-out to the multi-tiered interlock patio, covered in-ground concrete pool, and dedicated pool lounge - an outdoor retreat surrounded by mature landscaping, set on an oversized double lot. The property offers dual driveways from both Turnbull and Terrace, and a double garage with interior access-an exceptional offering of sophistication, comfort, and prestige. (id:65958)

10-item due-diligence checklist. We can pre-flight most of these for you on a CMA call.
Comparable sales
Ask for 3–5 recent solds within ~1 km and the same beds/baths so the list price has context.
Property condition
Roof age, furnace age, hot-water tank age, electrical panel size, windows. Cosmetic vs structural.
Zoning
Confirm zoning matches your intent (single-family vs duplex vs secondary suite vs commercial).
Suite legality / potential
If suited or being marketed as suited: confirm permits, separate entrance, ceiling height, egress windows.
Monthly carrying cost
Mortgage + property tax + insurance + condo fee (if any) + utilities. Compare to your max budget.
Property taxes
Confirm the annual tax amount on the current assessment — and whether a reassessment is pending.
Insurance estimate
Get a same-day quote. Older homes, knob-and-tube wiring, polybutylene plumbing, flood plains all change the number.
Commute
Drive it (or transit it) at the actual time of day you'd commute. Map ETA lies during peak hours.
Deposit and financing conditions
Deposit size, financing condition window, condition removal date, possession date — all negotiable.
Inspection considerations
Budget for a home inspector ($500–700) and any specialty inspections (sewer scope, mould, asbestos for pre-1990 builds).
