1626 Oughton Drive

Lovingly cared for original owner home; this warm and welcoming Mary Hill home rests on one of the neighbourhood’s most peaceful and sought-after streets. Surrounded by nature while still feeling seamlessly connected to the community, the property offers a rare blend of tranquility and convenience just minutes from parks, schools, and only 2 kilometres from downtown Port Coquitlam. Set on an expansive 8,000+ square foot lot with exceptional suite potential, this is a home that has been thoughtfully maintained and tastefully updated over the years while preserving the warmth and character that make it feel instantly inviting.

From the moment you step inside, the home’s connection to its serene surroundings becomes clear. The large living room is filled with natural light thanks to an oversized front window overlooking the manicured front garden, flat grassy yard, and beautiful mountain views beyond. It is a space that feels bright and calming throughout the day, anchored by a gas fireplace framed with a painted white brick surround and modern tiled hearth extension—a striking blend of timeless charm and contemporary updates. The living room flows seamlessly into the dining area, creating an open and comfortable setting for everyday living or gathering with family and friends.

The dining room carries its own personality with a retro-chic brick accent wall that adds warmth and texture to the space. A perfectly placed window frames views into the pristine backyard, continuing the home’s recurring theme of drawing the outdoors in.

Directly connected, the kitchen was extensively updated in 2020 and is both bright and highly functional. Crisp white cabinetry, granite countertops, subway tile flooring, and thoughtful storage solutions give the space a clean and timeless feel. A full-height pantry cupboard, lazy Susan, display cabinets, and dedicated desk area enhance both practicality and organization. High-end appliances include a Thermador five-burner gas range paired with a Thermador hood fan, built-in Panasonic microwave and built-in oven, Bosch dishwasher, and a large-capacity French-door KitchenAid refrigerator and freezer. Positioned beneath a picturesque window overlooking the backyard, the kitchen sink turns even everyday tasks into something peaceful, reinforcing the home’s natural connection to its outdoor setting. From here, direct access leads onto the expansive back deck with stairs descending into the yard below.

Rich hardwood flooring runs throughout the entire main level, accented with decorative inlaid trim that adds an extra layer of craftsmanship and character. The primary bedroom includes a two-piece ensuite, while two of the bedrooms enjoy beautiful mountain. The main bathroom has been finished as a clean and functional three-piece.

Downstairs, the lower level was updated in 2020 and offers exceptional flexibility with outstanding potential for an easy suite conversion. The oversized recreation room is beautifully finished with tile flooring, modern pot lighting, and a gas fireplace featuring an updated hearth designed to complement the room’s contemporary finishes. A long window fitted with premium wooden shutters brings in natural light while maintaining privacy, and large dual French-door closets with built-in organizers add incredible functionality. The scale and layout of this room make it an ideal to be a combination living area and bedroom for a future suite.

Adjacent to the recreation space is an impressive flex room already set up for use as a secondary kitchen. Complete with a vented hood fan, abundant cabinetry, floor-to-ceiling pantry storage, mini fridge, and a two-person eating bar positioned in front of a large window overlooking the backyard patio, the room is both practical and inviting. There is also ample space for a full dining table, breakfast nook, or home office setup depending on future needs.

The lower level continues with a well-appointed four-piece bathroom featuring a linen closet, generous under-stair storage, and an oversized unfinished laundry and storage room that functions perfectly as a shared utility area for a future suite. Convenient access to the backyard further enhances the lower level’s flexibility and livability.

Outside, the property truly shines. The backyard is peaceful, private, and beautifully maintained, creating an atmosphere where the sounds of birds, rustling leaves, and soft wind chimes replace the noise of the outside world. With an incredible 1,091 square feet of combined patio and deck space spanning the full width of the home, the outdoor areas are ready to accommodate every aspect of summer living. Fire tables, barbecues, smokers, lounge seating, dining setups, and entertaining spaces all fit effortlessly while still leaving the yard feeling open and expansive. The south-facing exposure fills the space with sunlight throughout the day, while raised garden beds, a large grassy area, low-maintenance landscaping, and a storage shed complete the setting.

The property also includes a double garage and a long, wide driveway with more than enough room for vehicles, recreational toys, or additional parking. A furnace update completed in 2020 adds further value and peace of mind.

Beautifully maintained, thoughtfully updated, and perfectly positioned within one of Port Coquitlam’s most desirable neighbourhoods, this Mary Hill home offers warmth, versatility, and an outdoor setting that feels truly restorative. It is the kind of property where you can instantly picture family dinners, quiet mornings on the deck, mountain views through the windows, and long summers spent enjoying the backyard in complete comfort.
