This charming two-bedroom bungalow, with its appealing cross-braced gables and river-stone accents, will make an ideal home for a young couple expecting their first baby or a pair of empty-nesters looking to downsize. Entrance is through a spacious covered veranda into a foyer with a coat closet to the immediate left. Ahead is the great room, with a built-out gas fireplace that will provide cozy warmth in the cooler months, both here and in the open-plan dining room and kitchen. The dining room, which flows seamlessly into the great room, enjoys access to a sundeck, half of which is covered, making it the perfect spot for year-round barbecuing. The kitchen, with a U-shaped counter configuration, features a prep island that separates this room from the dining area. A large pantry occupies a corner, providing always-welcome storage space. The master suite boasts windows on two sides, overlooking both the back garden and side yard. The ensuite features a soaker tub as well as a shower stall, as well as double basins to ease the morning rush. The generous walk-in closet will be roomy enough for even the most clothes-conscious couple. Adjacent to the foyer is the second bedroom, which occupies the front of the home. This bedroom is ideally located to double as a home office. Entrance to the four-piece bathroom, which includes a storage closet, is framed by an archway. Opposite is the laundry room, with a large walk-in closet for family gear, and access to the double garage. Also off the foyer, a flight of stairs leads down to the unfinished basement, included in the plans. Exterior finishes include stone accents, vertical board-and-batten siding and stucco. Windows are partly mullioned, and the garage door features narrow accent windows. This home measures 49 feet, six inches, by 48 feet, two inches, for a total of 1,594 square feet of living space.
