Modern architecture, set within a private acre setting. This custom-built bungalow in Mannheim brings together scale, light, and a seamless connection to the outdoors. Offering nearly 4,000 square feet above grade, the home is defined by clean lines, a full stucco exterior, and an understated yet intentional presence. Inside, 13 ft ceilings carry through the main living area, creating volume without excess. The family room anchors the home, where a statement fireplace set against a marble feature wall defines the space, while a full wall of glass frames uninterrupted views of the backyard. The outdoors becomes part of the everyday experience. The kitchen sits at the centre, refined and functional, with a waterfall-edge island and integrated finishes that support the space without overpowering it. With 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and a dedicated office, the layout offers both separation and flexibility. The primary suite is set apart as a private retreat, positioned to take full advantage of the property. Elevated views extend over the backyard, with a private balcony that continues that connection outdoors, while the ensuite carries it further with a freestanding tub and glass shower. It's a space that feels quiet, intentional, and removed from the rest of the home. Additional space below offers 2,700 square feet ready to be shaped into wellness, recreation, or extended living. The backyard is where everything comes together. Set on a wide, tree-lined and fully fenced acre lot, the outdoor space is arranged around a saltwater pool with an automatic Coverstar safety cover, with multiple areas for dining, lounging, and gathering. A detached workshop, currently used as a golf simulator, and a separate storage shed add flexibility beyond the home. A two-car garage, equipped for electric vehicle charging, adds everyday convenience. Located just minutes from Kitchener-Waterloo, the setting offers privacy without compromise.
