Welcome to 278 John Aselford Drive
Nestled on a quiet, tree‑lined 3.76‑acre lot in the serene community of Saddlebrooke Estates in rural Kanata, this architecturally striking 4 bed, 5 bath custom bungaloft offers over 4,100 sq ft of finished space and an exceptional blend of refined living and natural surroundings. A thoughtfully designed layout with a main level primary suite, a stunning chef’s kitchen, and a resort-style backyard with a saltwater pool and landscaped grounds create a home perfectly suited for comfortable family living and elevated entertaining.
Main Level
Step into the grand tiled foyer framed by elegant French doors. Hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, leading into a bright two‑storey living room where floor-to-ceiling windows showcase picturesque views of the surrounding grounds and provide direct access to the outdoor patio. A wood‑burning fireplace anchors the space, creating the perfect atmosphere to entertain.
The spacious formal dining room, highlighted by a statement chandelier, offers an ideal setting for hosting. Directly across, a sun‑filled office with French doors provides a private and inspiring work‑from‑home environment.
The chef’s kitchen and adjoining breakfast area impress with timeless white cabinetry, granite countertops, a gas range, stainless steel appliances, generous pantry storage, and a cozy gas fireplace. Expansive windows capture both front and backyard views, enhancing the sense of connection to nature. Just off the kitchen, a serene screened‑in sunroom offers a peaceful retreat with direct access to the pool area.
The main‑level primary suite is tucked into its own private wing, featuring two walk‑in closets, access to the screened sunroom, and a spa‑inspired ensuite bathroom (2022) complete with a double quartz vanity, luxurious soaker tub, and glass‑enclosed shower. A second bedroom, an expansive gym or flexible bonus room with an electric fireplace, and two convenient powder rooms further enhance the functionality of the main floor.
Everyday living is made effortless with a well‑appointed laundry room and a highly practical mudroom equipped with a dog shower, additional refrigerator and freezer, and direct access to both the pool area and the oversized three‑car garage—perfect for busy families and seamless indoor‑outdoor living.
Second Level
A bright, airy staircase leads to the upper level, where hardwood floors continue and natural light fills the space. Overlooking the living room below, the open loft offers a versatile area ideal for reading, relaxing, or additional workspace.
Two generous bedrooms complete this level, each featuring its own private ensuite bathroom, a highly desirable layout that ensures comfort and privacy for family members or overnight guests.
