Set on one of Aurora's most storied streets, 41 Kennedy Road West makes an immediate impression - a heritage-listed home of genuine character on an extraordinary river's edge lot with Tannery Creek winding through the grounds, two private bridges, and a small man-made waterfall whose gentle sound drifts through the gardens on a quiet evening.The hone renovations started in 2017, with new windows, custom shutters, and a new balcony roof, before Monaco Interiors undertook a comprehensive renovation in 2021/22 with honouring the original stucco and fieldstone character that earned it a place on Aurora's Heritage Register. The main floor features an open-concept chef's kitchen with marble countertops, GE Monogram gas range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, custom coffee bar, and a separate eat-in area. The family room with its shiplap ceiling, marble fireplace surround, custom bar, and walkout to the stone patio and exceptional gardens anchors the home beautifully. A sunroom with French doors, formal dining room with coffered ceilings, and a great room with two window seats overlooking the gardens complete the main level.Upstairs, the primary retreat features a gas fireplace, skylight, walk-in closets, private balcony, and a luxurious 5-piece ensuite with heated floors and standalone soaker tub. The fully waterproofed lower level offers a rec room, laundry, craft area, and a large unfinished space ready to customize.Outside, flagstone patios, extensive perennial gardens, and 657+ feet of depth create a private sanctuary unlike anything else in Aurora. A short walk to Yonge Street, top schools, shopping, and Aurora GO.
