Why spend your summers at someone else's cottage when you can have your own backyard resort? Welcome to 73 Appleford Road, a beautifully maintained 4-level backsplit backing onto the park-like grounds of Sir Allan MacNab Secondary School with no rear neighbours. The standout feature inside is the open-concept main level, created by opening up the original floor plan years ago to deliver the spacious kitchen, dining and living area today's buyers are searching for. Upstairs offers 3 bedrooms and a full bathroom, while the lower level features a cozy family room with gas fireplace, wet bar, 4th bedroom currently used as a home office, 3-piece bathroom with walk-in shower, and walkout to the backyard. Outside, summer awaits with a crystal-clear 16' x 32' heated saltwater pool, gazebo with swing, expansive patio, mature landscaping, and plenty of room for entertaining family and friends. Freshly painted throughout and move-in ready, with major updates including furnace and central air (2024), roof (2022), windows, lawn sprinkler system, newer laundry appliances, and most pool equipment replaced within the last 2-5 years. Parking for 3 vehicles. A rare opportunity to enjoy open-concept living, a backyard oasis, and one of Hamilton Mountain's most desirable family-friendly neighbourhoods.
