About 252 Blue Heron Drive
Welcome to this remarkable custom-built executive home nestled on over half an acre in one of New Glasgow’s most sought-after West Side neighbourhoods. Designed with both family living & elegant entertaining in mind, this 5 bedroom, 5 bathroom residence combines luxury, functionality & location in perfect harmony. Step inside to a grand walnut staircase in the centre foyer, setting the tone for the quality & craftsmanship throughout. To one side, a formal living room with a wood-burning fireplace & separate dining room offer space for memorable gatherings, while the other side invites you into a cozy family room with electric fireplace, cathedral-ceilinged sunroom & built-in home office—ideal for today’s flexible lifestyles. The dream kitchen completes the main level with thoughtful design & ample space for everyday living. Upstairs, 5 generously sized bedrooms await, including a primary suite with ensuite bath plus 2 other bathrooms on the 2nd floor. The basement, recently renovated, features a spacious 25x30+ rec room with a propane fireplace & an additional stairwell access from the attached double garage—perfect for seamless daily flow. Outdoors, the property shines with a triple paved driveway, beautifully landscaped yard, and show-stopping 9-foot deep in-ground swimming pool (added in 2014) with a 50-foot cedar sundeck—your own personal oasis. A fenced-in yard offers privacy & updates like the 2025 ducted heat pump (main floor), 2021 roof shingles, painting throughout & more. Top it off with the convenience of generator wiring to ensure comfort & peace of mind. Location is unbeatable: just minutes from highway access, walk to AG Baillie Elementary in moments, explore riverside trails, or browse the Farmers Market. You're also only 10 minutes from golf & 20 minutes from the sandy shores of Melmerby Beach. This is more than a home -it's a lifestyle.
