Welcome to 1288 Old Orchard Ave - a beautifully updated home with over $100,000 in upgrades and curb appeal that makes a lasting first impression. A long driveway and an upgraded composite front deck set the tone before you even step inside. The main floor showcases rich hardwood flooring, with smooth ceilings and pot lights illuminating both the living and dining rooms. At the heart of the home is an upgraded kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances and stone countertops - as functional as it is striking. Generously sized bedrooms offer comfortable retreats, while the updated washroom impresses with quartz countertops, a glass walk-in shower, and a double vanity. The third bedroom adds a touch of versatility with its walkout to the backyard.Out back, you'll find your own private escape: a two-tier deck, a relaxing hot tub with custom privacy walls, and a storage shed - the perfect setup for entertaining or unwinding. The finished basement is a legal apartment and a standout in its own right, complete with a separate side entrance for added privacy and flexibility. With its own self-contained layout, it offers excellent income potential - an ideal mortgage helper or rental opportunity. Laminate flooring runs throughout, lit by pot lights from end to end. A large bedroom with a gas fireplace, custom closet, and 3-piece ensuite featuring a stand-up glass shower can serve as a private guest suite, rental unit, or be transformed into the ultimate entertainment space. A spacious living area, a bar area with rough-in for a kitchen, an additional full washroom, and large above-grade egress windows complete this bright, flexible lower level. Add a newer roof and quality upgrades throughout, and 1288 Old Orchard Ave delivers comfort, style, and incredible flexibility in one of Pickering's welcoming communities.
