House Tour: Oakville Lakefront Home
Julia over at Hooked on Houses is hosting a home tour across the blogosphere. I’ve decided to showcase a beautiful home in Oakville on the shores of Lake Ontario.
Founded in 1827, Oakville is a lakeside city with a small-town feel. Only a 30-minute drive from Toronto, Oakville residents have a higher average household income (perhaps reflective of the many Toronto-company CEO’s who live in the area!) and many of the houses in Old Oakville have a lakefront view like this one. Let’s take a look:
This gorgeous renovated house has 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. It boasts beautifully finished bathrooms with traditional details like beadboard and clawfoot tubs. And the kitchen – the kitchen! – so dreamy with white and dark cabinets, granite backsplash, cup pulls, and the satin nickel bridge faucet.
Since the house is currently empty, you can really see the quality in the craftsmanship. Look at the gorgeous oak hardwood floors in the loft space. Leaded pane windows, coffered ceilings, wainscoting…it almost makes me want to ditch my house in the city for this sanctuary in the country. Almost… but I don’t have the $1.75M in my pocket needed to pick up this beauty. Maybe you do??
Can't get enough house tours? Check out these others on the Hooked on Houses tour, or click on Before & After to see pics of my 'always under renovation' house.
