Welcome to 20 Japonica Crescent, a beautifully updated 2-storey home in Brantford's Henderson-Holmedale neighbourhood. This established community is known for its spacious lot sizes, mature trees, & beautifully landscaped properties. With ample space between homes, you enjoy a rare sense of privacy & breathing room. Step through the stunning new front entranceway into a turn-key interior bathed in natural light. Details have been tastefully updated, including hardwood flooring, modernized trim, & interior doors. Whether you prefer the kitchen or the family room as the central gathering place, both spaces are beautifully tailored to complement modern living. The kitchen features an integrated quartz table, ideal for meal prep or family homework. Just steps away, the inviting family room is illuminated by modern pot lights & boasts cabinets to showcase your art collection, favourite books, or family photos. Two fireplaces (gas & electric) provide perfect ambiance on the main level. California shutters grace most windows on the main & upper levels, elegantly dressing some of the three separate access points to the rear yard. The second floor offers an ideal layout with four bedrooms. This includes a primary suite with a 4-piece ensuite, plus an additional 4-piece family bathroom. All three bathrooms throughout the home have been updated. Outside, the fenced rear yard is a true private oasis. An expansive, concrete patio seamlessly connects distinct entertaining zones. Host gatherings with ease, whether seated under the gazebo, grilling in the dedicated BBQ canopy, relaxing in the hot tub, or enjoying the fire pit seating area. The impeccably maintained grounds feature an irrigation system (front and side), while a 2-car garage & two outdoor sheds provide additional storage. Enjoy peace of mind with recent mechanical updates: a newer furnace & humidifier (under 3 years) & a 4-month old A/C nit. Properties of this calibre are must-see. Prepare to fall in love.
