This affordable plan is designed with the first-time homebuyer in mind. The California-style, basement-entry home includes a potential rental suite. Where local bylaws allow, this is an ideal way to supplement the mortgage. The op~n-plan unfinished basement includes optional recreation space and a bedroom, thus increasing the living space to two floors. The roughed-in plan shows a potential suite layout and includes a central laundry room that is accessible from upper and lower floors. Upstairs, three good-sized bedrooms will accommodate a growing family. The combined living and dining room features a central fireplace always a cosy focus for winter evenings. A half-wall that outlines the main stairway creates a feeling of spaciousness. The efficient kitchen layout will make meal preparation a breeze. The bayed breakfast nook is an inviting place to enjoy a morning coffee and access to the rear sun deck offers an outdoor view of the garden. The master suite is large for a home of this size and includes a walk-in closet and three-piece en suite bathroom with a shower enclosure. Two secondary bedrooms share a main bathroom with a skylight. Multi-paned are-top windows distinguish the exterior, along with decorative stucco and double columns flanking the entrance. The house is 40 feet wide and 36 feet deep with 1,121 square feet of living space.
