Welcome to 1820 Shady Creek Court, a distinguished residence on a private cul de sac in prime Erin Mills. The grand foyer opens beneath a two-storey ceiling where a sweeping oak spiral staircase rises past a curved gallery and continues through all three levels. A formal living room sits apart behind wide double doors. Straight ahead, the dining room seats ten beneath crown moulding and a plaster ceiling medallion. The kitchen is the heart of it - full-height cherry cabinetry, rose-veined granite, and an eat-in area beneath a full glass gable roof with treetops and open sky overhead, framed by white-washed clear cedar California shutters. At the back of the home, a separate family room offers a wood-burning fireplace, Hunter Douglas drapery and a walkout to a private balcony above the pool. A main floor office doubles as a bedroom, with a mudroom, garage access, laundry and powder room completing the level. Upstairs, four generous bedrooms, anchored by a primary suite with walk-in closet and spa-inspired six-piece ensuite: jetted corner soaker tub set in marble beneath its own window, double sinks and bidet. The lower level is a second living floor, not a basement. Above-grade windows, luxury vinyl plank throughout, a second wood-burning fireplace, recreation and games areas, fifth bedroom, playroom, three-piece bath - and a walkout to a covered terrace opening onto the pool. Beyond, a heated in-ground pool set in stamped concrete on a pie-shaped lot that is 95 feet across the rear, and 130 feet deep - with mature cedar on every side. And then there's the reason people stay. The Sawmill Valley ravine trails are right here - walking the dog means stepping out the door and into the woods, not loading anyone into a car. Steps from top-ranked public and Catholic schools and neighbourhood parks. Minutes to Credit Valley Hospital, Erin Mills Town Centre and UTM, with effortless access to the 403, 407, QEW and GO Transit.
