44 HOWE ISLAND Drive

Island living at its finest. This custom built 4583 sq ft Garafolo home was built on a beautiful west-facing waterfront lot and left no expense spared. With this coveted setting in mind, nearly every room on the main floor features stunning views of the renowned Bateau Channel. This expansive home has high-end finishes throughout and a layout that could suit anyone, with enough room for a large family while also allowing single floor living for someone looking to avoid stairs. Boasting hardwood and tile throughout the main floor (including in-floor heating in all tiled areas), this level features the primary suite (including a 5-pc ensuite and large walk-in closet), laundry, 3-pc bathroom, dining with gas fireplace, and great entertaining space with water views from the kitchen, breakfast room, sunroom, and great room. The grand hardwood stairs lead you to a bright loft space overlooking the great room, and large bedrooms with a 4-pc bathroom. The upstairs also allows for home office or in-law space with a large loft accessible from the house or garage featuring two bright rooms with skylights, dormers, and private balconies. The extensive shoreline work (blasting, excavation, seawall, etc.) and 90’ dock makes this home perfect for any boating enthusiast with sufficient depth and space to dock a large boat. The 20’ x 20’ seating area on the dock is perfect for watching sunsets or drying off after a swim in the river. For those looking to extend swimming season, the heated 32’ x 16’ inground saltwater pool (2019) surrounded by mature trees and gardens is where you can spend your time. With the many recent improvements this home is ready to move in and enjoy! (id:50836)
