Welcome to 138 Catalina Drive, a 3+1 bedroom raised bungalow situated within Toronto’s well-established Guildwood neighbourhood. Lovingly maintained, this home showcases extensive interlocking front and back; landscaped front gardens with mature perennial plantings; and stone steps to a glass-panelled double door entry with an oversized transom, their south-facing exposure flooding natural light light into the home. From the ceramic-tiled foyer are stairs to the main and lower levels, which showcase wonderful entertaining and personal spaces. The main level is finished with hardwood flooring throughout, and features open concept living and dining rooms that are naturally brightened with light through the huge south-facing picture window, as well as an accent window in the dining area - which overlooks the beautiful outdoor setting of the backyard. Contemporary track lighting provides additional interior brightness, and can be found in the main hallway, and in the updated kitchen. A bright and functional workspace, the kitchen showcases abundant cabinetry storage; quartz counters with a stainless steel double under mount sink; a custom porcelain-tiled back splash; and a new fridge and stove - as well as the convenience of a servery area with a built-in microwave shelf and a dishwasher. From the kitchen is the walk-out to the back deck. Providing outdoor enjoyment rain or shine, this covered deck was recently updated - and steps down to an interlocking patio area offering additional entertaining and relaxation space. The size of the fenced-in backyard allows for lots of room for kids to play and enjoy the custom-made treehouse - and with its mature trees has the same clean, fresh-air feel as the rest of the neighbourhood. The main level has three closets along its hallway - a mirrored door coat closet, a pantry closet for the kitchen, and a linen closet at the end of the hall - where you also find the three bedrooms and the 4-pc main washroom - which features ceramic finishes, a bath area with sliding glass shower doors, and a vanity updated with a new drop-in sink. All three bedrooms are quite spacious, and have large windows allowing for natural brightness - with the second bedroom featuring chair rail, ample closet storage, and a south-facing exposure; a double closet and back yard views with the third bedroom; while the master bedroom has a large mirrored door double closet as well as a south-facing exposure. This home showcases many important exterior upgrades: a new roof (2017) with high-end shingles on brand new spruce plywood with additional vents (the roof comes with a transferrable 50 year manufacturing defect warranty, which must be transferred by the new owners into their name within 60 days of closing date); eavestroughs with a T-rex gutter system (replaced in 2010, comes with a 20-year manufacturer’s warranty); as well as a new backyard shed and a new door for the single car garage - while in the lower level is a new Armstrong Air furnace (2017); a new rented hot water tank (2019); an updated electrical panel (2013); as well as an updated LG front-loading washer and dryer. The laundry area is combined with a huge storage room that is exceptionally clean, has two double closets, and also has space for a hobby or play room. The entire lower level is incredibly bright, has oversized above ground windows throughout, and there’s also two more closets aside from the ones in the storage room. In addition, this level features a renovated 2-pc washroom; a bonus room with carpeting that is ideal as a bedroom or a home office; as well as a spacious family recreation area with carpeting and wainscoting. Located in a safe, family-oriented neighbourhood, this home is a short walk to Elizabeth Simcoe Public School and Sir Wilfrid Laurier Collegiate Institute, as well as being steps to nearby Elizabeth Simcoe Park. Also within walking distance is the historic Guild Inn, which hosts summertime festivals and events, while its beautiful gardens also provide access to the extensive pathway along Lake Ontario, as well as Guild Beach. Nearby is a local plaza for everyday shopping and personal conveniences; and for commuters, the Guildwood GO Station is just minutes away, with the ride to Union Station only 30 minutes long.
