This three-bedroom family home, with its river-rock chimney and accents, as well as the decorative wooden bracing at the gables, will be an asset to any neighbourhood and provide all the amenities a contemporary family could desire. Entry is to one side, through a covered L-shaped veranda and into a lofty double-height foyer. Immediately ahead, though an arched opening, is the great room, part of the open-plan family complex. The great room also boasts a double-height ceiling, as well as large windows that look onto a covered deck to the back garden. A wood-burning fireplace will cast its rosy glow into both the kitchen and the dining room, where windows look out to the back garden. The dining room enjoys access to the covered deck, making summertime al fresco meals a breeze to serve. The kitchen area is separated from the other rooms by a generous prep island. The L-shaped counter configuration will save steps for the cook. Natural light will flood in through the window over the double sink, and a spacious walk-in pantry will offer extra room for storage. Located at the back of the home for privacy, the master suite includes a deluxe ensuite with a soaker tub with its own window, as well as a shower stall and double basins. Adjoining the ensuite is a roomy walk-in closet. Completing the ground-floor layout is the laundry room, fitted with a coat closet. With access to the double garage, this room can double as a mud room. Upstairs, the second and third bedrooms share a three-piece bathroom with a linen closet. On the landing, a railing encloses the space in the angle of the staircase that is open to the floor below. A cupboard on the landing will be handy for storage, or could easily be converted into a computer nook.
