Skip the cottage traffic & come home to your own private retreat. Tucked onto one of Pelham's most loved streets, this is the kind of home that offers something increasingly hard to find: generous space, incredible privacy, and the opportunity to make an already special property even better.At the heart of the home is a spectacular Muskoka-inspired great room, where walls of windows frame the tree-lined backyard & bring the outdoors in. At nearly 300 sq. ft., a fireplace & direct access to the deck, it's a space made for slow mornings, family gatherings & evenings overlooking the pool. The adjoining kitchen/breakfast area create an impressive everyday living space, while the front of the home offers an additional oversized living/dining area-giving future owners plenty of flexibility to reimagine the layout for a home office, formal dining room, playroom or whatever suits your lifestyle. Upstairs are 3 beds, including a spacious primary with access to its own deck, plus a 4piece bath. For buyers thinking beyond today, the 2nd flr layout presents exciting renovation potential: the primary sits directly beside the existing bathroom, creating an opportunity to explore a future ensuite & reconfigured primary suite while maintaining 3 beds.There's even more room to spread out on the walk-out grade level, with large rec room featuring another fireplace, a den, laundry & bathroom, while the bsmt provides an impressive amount of additional storage. Outside is where this property truly earns its retreat status. With no rear neighbours, the private, fully fenced yard is surrounded by mature greenery &designed for summer living, w/ multiple decks & patios, a firepit & a heated kidney-shaped pool.With a 2.5-car garage, hardwood floors, generous storage & more than 2,400 sq. ft. of above-grade interior space, this is a home you can enjoy now & continue to evolve over time.The setting & space are already here. The next chapter is simply deciding what you want to do with it.
