Black Walnut Homes has just completed a stunning model in the attractive and convenient
Eastbridge district of north-eastern Waterloo.
Everything you see in this fashionable, well-designed home is
included in the advertised price of $222,500.00. Special features that are upgrades
from the already-high standards of Black Walnut Homes include unique ceramic-tile
flooring, elegant pewter-look light fixtures, and impressive kitchen upgrades.
All Spacious Rooms
The traditional architecture of this home will ensure its
long-term investment value, while inside you will find stylish new features that satisfy
the changing needs and desires for a comfortable, luxurious lifestyle.
Thanks to Clive Woolner's clever design the foyer,
hallways, and every room are generously sized - but without any wasted space. The
result is a home that feels much larger than it actually is, which means you save on
purchase cost, taxes, and maintenance over the long term. One of the most savvy features
of this home is the "option" room on the main floor - ideal as a home office, a
formal dining room, a den or studio, or even a bedroom. The choice is yours, and
uses can easily change.
The first feature you are likely to notice when you
step into the very spacious front foyer is the unique ceramic-tile flooring. It has the rich look and
feel of classic Italian mosaic - and it is used throughout the appropriate areas of this
home: main hallway, kitchen, family/dining area, and powder room. Ceramic-tile
flooring is also included in both bathrooms upstairs as well as the laundry room.
The front closet is large enough that there should always be space for guests'
coats. The powder room is usually generous in size, allowing great possibilities for
decorating. The direct entry from the double garage is convenient to both the
kitchen and the basement stairs.
The dramatic staircase features substantial oak
railings and an oversize window that would be ideal for a custom stained glass
window. In the interim, the builder has include frosted glass so you can enjoy all
the light without needing curtains for privacy. This is typical of Clive Woolner's
careful attention to detail.
Luxurious Living Area
From the smartly-angled central hallway, a wide
framed opening invites you into the Great Room, with its full cathedral ceiling, wide
Palladian window and stunning corner fireplace trimmed with rich deep granite.
The hallway leads naturally into the
richly-appointed kitchen and the adjacent generous-sized dining area with patio doors. The
list of special features in the kitchen includes rich deep granite countertops, a large
island with stylish end wine rack, decorative corner shelves, large pantry, lazy
Susan, and built-out cabinets above the refrigerator.
Full Master Suite
Upstairs, all three bedrooms are large, with
generous closets. Everything is bright and airy, thanks to minimum 8-foot ceilings
throughout. The upper hallway is also wonderfully bright and spacious - making it the
perfect location to set up the ironing board just outside the convenient laundry room and
adjacent linen closet. The main bathroom features a huge vanity with two sets of
drawers. The acrylic tub-shower is durable and easy to keep sparkling clean. The
master suite is impressive with its wide Palladian window and stylish tray ceiling.
Of course it includes California textured finish, which is featured throughout this
home. The master ensuite includes a whirlpool tub-shower with full height ceramic
tile. The walk-in closet is ample. The clever design of the master bedroom results
in exceptional flexibility in the placement of furniture.
Extraordinary Quality
Clive Woolner is a custom builder who puts
considerable care and personal effort into all of his Black Walnut Homes. Exterior
features include a fully-sodded lot (this one is a spacious 40 by 122 feet), landscaping,
base-coat paved driveway, and a decorative stamped concrete finish on the large covered
front porch - giving you the look of tile and a surface that will last almost forever.
Every detail outside is carefully considered. The door jams are covered in vinyl,
and steel lintels above the windows are capped with aluminum to eliminate painting.
The two hose connections are "no freeze" for easy year-round use with no risk of
bursting pipes.
Insulation exceeds the already high standards of the
building code, and the exterior basement walls are fully studded and insulated right to
the floor. Superior plastic basement cladding ensures a dry, warm basement.
The windows are oversized with wells that are deeper than standard, for extra light. The
basement floor is sealed to eliminate dust. The builder also temporarily seals the
entire furnace system so dust and debris from construction are totally eliminated.
Sophisticated, adjustable return -air ductwork will keep the entire home comfortable in
any season. Clive Woolner uses only kiln-dried studs, for straight walls and greatly
reduced nail pops. Sub floors are glued and screwed for maximum stability and no
squeaks. Superior paint and trim, decorative door hardware, and upgraded hardware on the
casement windows are other high-standard touches in all Black Walnut homes.
