Welcome to 138 Atherton Avenue, a beautifully updated four bedroom semi-detached brick home with three washrooms situated within the family-minded Meadow Ridge neighbourhood of Northwest Ajax.
Landscaped front to back - the extra wide stone walkway to the glass-enclosed arched front portico also serves as an additional exterior parking space, the stone continuing along the north side of the home and into the backyard.
Through the front entrance is an open-themed main level showcasing a modern neutral decor, updated LED pot lighting, and an abundance of natural light throughout; off the main hall is a bonus room that is ideal for household storage, a powder room featuring a vanity updated with a quartz counter, and a wall niche with accent lighting; while the sunken foyer has a mirrored door coat closet and access to the attached single car garage - the ceramic flooring of these spaces also featured in the kitchen and its breakfast area.
Half walls with decor columns grace the entry into the living room, which showcases an octagonal shaped coffered ceiling with an elegant medallion, new hardwood flooring, and a wall cut-out that opens it to the foyer - this beautiful entertaining space also well-suited as an intimate formal dining room.
The spacious family room also showcases new hardwood flooring, and enjoys the added warmth of a gas fireplace surrounded by an elegant mantle with a tiled accent facade and hearth. This end of the home benefits immensely from a west-facing exposure - with the three family room windows, the sliding door walk-out in the kitchen’s breakfast area, as well as the two oversized entries and wall cut-out between these rooms allowing natural light to permeate these spaces thoroughly.
With a bright, open layout - the functional meal prep space offered by the kitchen showcases ceramic back splashes; a stainless steel oven with gas cooktop and a French door fridge; exceptional cabinetry storage that includes a pantry; a servery-style counter separate from the main work area that has a stainless steel under mount sink and a built-in dishwasher; as well as being updated with quartz counters - the sliding door walk-out opening to an incredibly low-maintenance west-facing backyard which features a huge stone patio area with raised stone garden beds at the rear.
Carrying to the upper level is a new dark-stained hardwood staircase with wrought iron pickets - this level showcasing new hardwood flooring throughout; upgraded light fixtures; two washrooms; and three existing bedrooms - with the hallway loft space, which has a double sized closet, able to be converted into a fourth bedroom with the addition of a wall.

A linen closet is found outside the entry into the main 4-pc washroom, which features a ceramic-tiled floor and bath area, and a vanity updated with a quartz counter; both the second and third bedrooms are spacious, have good-sized closets, and windows with east-facing exposures - the third bedroom, as well as the loft space, also having north-facing windows; and in addition - the home’s laundry area, which has a front load washer and dryer, is located in the unfinished lower level - which has oversized basement windows, and great potential for future recreational and entertaining space.
Filled with the warm, natural light of its west-facing exposure - the graciously sized master suite has ample space for a sitting area, and features a large walk-in closet — while its 5-pc ensuite washroom showcases ceramic finishes throughout; a soaker tub with a west-facing window above it; a vanity with a make-up area, double basins, and updated with a quartz counter; a shower area with glass door; and a water closet.
A short walk to public transit, as well as both Rosemary Brown and Vimy Ridge Public Schools; close to the Nottingham Market shopping plaza; and just steps to the neighbourhood parkette - this home is minutes to the restaurants and boutique shops within historic Pickering Village, and enjoys proximity to many of Ajax’s exceptional amenities - such as indoor and outdoor sports and fitness facilities, recreational and community centres, the Durham Centre Shopping Mall, Lakeridge Health Ajax Pickering Hospital, the GO Station, as well as quick access to Hwy 401 - and Ajax’s beautiful Waterfront Park with its over seven kilometres of trails along Lake Ontario is also a short drive away.
