The main residence blends warmth and function with thoughtful updates throughout. The kitchen and flooring were updated in 2016, and the basement was professionally refinished in 2020, adding valuable flexible living space. Bedroom wardrobes and closets were completed in 2020, and key infrastructure upgrades include a backwater valve (2020), updated electrical panel (2020), and 1 inch copper water line installed in 2023.

Laminate flooring runs throughout, and 2 generous bedrooms, a 4 piece bathroom, and in-suite laundry complete the space. Legal garden suite currently generating $2,550/month ($30,600/year), offering excellent income potential and offsetting roughly half of typical mortgage financing.
