Elegantly-designed and spacious, the home presents a classic pitched roof, dormer windows, exposed beams, and a striking red brick chimney.
Enter through the front door into a cozy sitting room with a gas fireplace which leads into an open concept kitchen, dining and living area with a TV and wood burning fireplace. Head to the large sunroom (our favorite space in the house) or grab a book or a cup of coffee into the lounge and start your day appreciating the serene garden views.
One guest bedroom is located on the main floor with a queen size bed looking out through the floor-to-ceiling bay windows with a view of the front garden. Another guest bedroom is located above the garage offering a king size bed and ensuite bathroom with a tub/shower combo.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms including the master bedroom which offers a king size bed, TV, ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower and views out to the gazebo and pond. One guest bedroom has two twin beds that can be converted into a king while the other offers a double bed. A shared bathroom with a clawfoot tub & shower combo is conveniently located on the landing between the 1st and 2nd floors.
The grounds feature delightful stone walls, perennial plantings, a children’s play area, a fire pit and include a sweeping bluestone patio with comfy seating, an umbrella for shade, grill and dining table making this the perfect place for al fresco meals or evening get togethers. Gather in the gazebo for some additional shade on a hot day, or take quiet time to sit by the ornamental pond.
