On paper, 201 Bussel Crescent is undoubtedly impressive, with nearly 3200 square feet and a nearly 60-foot long backyard facing a ravine. But what makes this house a home are some things the owner has shared with us. For example, the neighbours are quiet, and they feel very safe living here... even accidentally leaving the keys in the front door once in a while, only to wake up and find them there in the same place in the morning. The inside of the home has been described as "roomy" with lots of privacy. At night, the owners hear crickets and loons, and at times they have to remind themselves that they are not, in fact, living in the country. Both Bussel Crescent and Tupper are quiet streets in the evenings and on the weekends, with most of the school-related traffic starting and finishing after leaving in the morning and before returning from work. There's a massive community park in the middle of the subdivision, with a full-sized track, plus pond and a splash pad for the kids. There's a public school (Bruce Trail) nearby, and the Catholic school (St. Anthony of Padua) is about as conveniently located as possible, right across the street. For commuters, the Go Train station is a few minutes drive, or a 20 minute walk, away from the house. The private yard faces west, so you can watch the sun set on Milton every night.

The home was built by Millwood, with four bedrooms and four bathrooms, including three full bathrooms on the second floor. The master closet is large enough to handle a massive collection of clothing, and the spa-like ensuite will have you dreaming of coming home at night to relax. Conveniently features like double sinks in the bathrooms and second floor laundry with top quality front-loading Samsung washer and dryer are a blessing for a busy lifestyle. There's a separate living and dining room on the main floor, and the kitchen acts as the "hub" of the entire house, with a gigantic breakfast area opening up to all of the rooms. The family room, with a gas fireplace and hardwood floors, gets tons of natural light from windows on two walls. It's a perfect layout for entertaining guests and family. In the kitchen, there's a glass backsplash, granite countertops, upgraded cabinets and a breakfast bar.

When you look at the size of the home, the extensive upgrades and the wider lot backing onto a ravine, you realize very quickly that the home is exceptional value, and it's the kind of place you could imagine living in for a very long time, with all the must-haves to keep you happy for years to come.
