It is perfect for a couple or small family seeking space, style, and walkable convenience. Inside, a neutral palette and warm hardwood floors create an inviting main floor designed for everyday living. A glass-enclosed home office provides a quiet, light-filled workspace, while a contemporary fireplace elegantly separates the living and dining areas, adding both function and architectural interest. The bright, open-concept kitchen is thoughtfully designed with a gas cooktop, stainless steel appliances, bar sink for entertaining, generous storage, and a breakfast bar for casual meals or morning coffee. A practical mudroom and powder room offer seamless access to the double detached garage, making daily routines effortless. Upstairs, the primary retreat features large windows, two closets, and a well-appointed ensuite with double sinks and a generous tub/shower combination. Two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and convenient laundry make this level well suited for family living.
