This $8 million Mississauga home looks like it's in Muskoka
While having a cottage in the Muskokas is great, not having to sit in bumper-to-bumper traffic to get there is even better.
So without further ado, let us introduce you to 1618 Birchwood Drive East.
It's a three-bedroom, seven-bathroom, mid-century-style bungalow in Lorne Park.
The sprawling house is surrounded by trees, giving you that up-north feel while still being in the GTA.
The home boasts 8,800-square-feet of living space and plenty of luxury details throughout.
The interior of the home is very Scandinavian in design.
There's the light wide plank wood flooring, soaring 15-foot ceilings, several fireplaces, and plenty of natural sunlight, thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The main living spaces are open concept with architecturally interesting room dividers to create distinct spaces.
The kitchen is stunning, with two-tone cabinetry, quartzite counters, high-end appliances, and a grand island that's perfect for entertaining.
All the bedrooms are located in a separate wing.
Each bedroom also has its own ensuite bathroom.
The primary bedroom is beautiful and cozy with vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a modern linear fireplace.
On the lower level of the house, you'll find an exercise room, a media room, another bedroom, and a rec room.
Although the coolest feature downstairs has to be a secret door that's hidden behind a bookshelf and leads to the wine cellar.
Perhaps the best thing about this home is the seamless indoor-outdoor living.
Thanks to the numerous walk-outs as well as the large picture windows, it's almost like there's no barrier between the outside world and your indoor space.
The backyard is beautiful and features a large Gunite pool surrounded by lush gardens.
And while it might not be a lake, at least there's no weeds trying to strangle your ankles.
The home is listed for $8,388,000 – a $491,000 drop from its original listing price back in 2022.
