Here you'll find a massive primary-style bedroom with two oversized closets, a 4-piece bathroom, and a generous recreation room—perfect for entertaining, family gatherings, or simply relaxing. Enjoy peace of mind with several major updates already completed, including shingles (2022), dishwasher (2022), hot water tank (2022), furnace (2013), and eavestroughs (2014). Set on a large lot in an outstanding neighborhood, this property offers the ideal combination of comfort, functionality, and value. Additional features include a spacious steel storage shed, a boat shed, and two off-street parking stalls.

Whether you're a first-time homebuyer, looking to downsize, or seeking a great investment opportunity, this move-in-ready home is one you won't want to miss.
