The One the Builder Kept for Himself.Originally built and owned by the very craftsman who constructed the homes along this sought-after street, 81 Samuel Lount Rd stands apart - not just in position, but in character. Perched atop a hill on a generous 95 x 300 ft lot, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home was built with a discerning eye, and it shows in every thoughtful detail.Your first impression sets the tone beautifully - a large covered front porch welcomes you with the same craftsmanship found throughout, its ceiling finished with warm wood paneling and handsome beams, the perfect spot to take in the neighbourhood and enjoy the elevated setting. Step inside and the soaring sloped ceilings, rich wood paneling, and exposed beams of the main entrance and living room continue that warm, timeless character that makes this home so unmistakably special.The upgraded kitchen is a true heart-of-the-home - outfitted with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and elegant valence lighting - and flows seamlessly to a large deck where those sweeping 180-degree views stretch out before you in breathtaking fashion.Downstairs, the family room is made for gathering. A stunning lava rock wall frames a gas fireplace, 9-foot ceilings lend an airy grandeur, and a wet bar and walkout to the backyard make entertaining large groups feel effortless and natural. A finished rec room in the basement rounds out the lower level perfectly.Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms await, including a primary retreat that truly delivers - complete with a walk-in closet, two additional closets, and a beautifully renovated 5-piece ensuite featuring a freestanding soaker tub, glass shower, and heated floors. A private deck off the primary bedroom offers those same incredible views to wake up to every morning.All of this, just minutes from the Nokiidaa Trail, shopping, groceries, transit, community centres, and the library.Homes like this don't come along often. The builder knew it. Now it can be yours.
