Backs onto forest. Sits on a cul-de-sac. And has a walkout. Welcome to The Yellowbirch House, a rare offering tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac, backing directly onto protected forest. This is more than a home. Its a retreat. From the moment you step inside, you'll feel the scale and warmth of this thoughtfully designed home. The main floor is open and functional, blending everyday comfort with style: engineered hardwood, California shutters, gas fireplace framed by a timeless mantel, and vaulted great room with a full wall of windows pulling the forest views right into your living space. A long, oversized peninsula offers seating for 5, and direct sightlines to both the dining area and great room. Whether you're hosting friends or keeping an eye on the kids, the kitchen delivers on both form and function. The double-car garage leads into a proper mudroom with built-ins, keeping the chaos of daily life out of sight. Upstairs, you'll find 4 generous bedrooms, including a stunning primary suite with a sitting area, arched window, walk-in closet, and a private ensuite with double sinks. California shutters continue throughout the upper level, adding polish and privacy. A second full bathroom completes the upper level.The finished walkout basement offers even more space to spread out, whether it be a kids zone, guest quarters, income potential or a gym. A roughed-in bathroom is ready for your finishing touch. Step outside to one of the biggest highlights: a timber-framed deck spanning the width of the home, complete with glass railings, a full pergola, TV wall mount, and tranquil forest views. The deep, private backyard even includes a firepit for late-night conversations under the stars. The quiet cul-de-sac offers a safe place for kids to ride bikes and play with no through traffic-a welcome sense of privacy. Minutes to Masonville Mall, Sunningdale Golf & Country Club, trails, top schools, and every convenience, yet far enough removed to hear the birds, not the traffic.
