About This Property

Tucked into a quiet, family-friendly neighbourhood that feels more country than city, this well-cared-for home offers a rare blend of privacy, space, and proximity to the water. Set on a beautifully landscaped lot with mature trees and extensive perennial gardens, the backyard is a true urban oasis, complete with an in-ground pool, natural gas heater, hot tub with enclosure, pergola-covered deck, and plenty of room to entertain or relax in total privacy. Inside, the home is thoughtfully laid out with generous spacing across every level, creating a comfortable flow for everyday living. The living room serves as the heart of the home, highlighted by a soaring ceiling, abundant natural light, and an electric fireplace that adds warmth and character. The kitchen has been refreshed with updated cabinetry, backsplash, lighting, and newer appliances, while cornice moulding and updated flooring add subtle elegance throughout. The primary bedroom offers a peaceful retreat, featuring a charming private deck overlooking the backyard, ideal for morning coffee or quiet evenings. Additional updates include a professionally painted interior in 2025, modernized lighting with added pot lights, a barn door accent to the primary ensuite, and updated deck railings.

A large driveway with parking for up to 10 vehicles adds everyday convenience.
