A versatile front room with a large window and generous closet space makes an ideal home office, den, or additional bedroom. A convenient main-floor bathroom and laundry area add everyday functionality.At the heart of the home is a stunning gourmet kitchen, complete with a large island designed for casual dining and entertaining and a full suite of Samsung appliances. A new deck extends the living space outdoors, overlooking the backyard on a spacious double lot. The newly sided detached garage offers excellent storage or the opportunity to create the workshop, studio, or entertainment space you've always envisioned. A substantial second-storey addition adds exceptional space and flexibility. A custom corner staircase window fills the upper level with natural light. The private primary suite features a beautifully appointed ensuite, while three additional generously sized bedrooms, each with large windows and ample closet space, are served by a newly added four-piece bathroom. The lower level offers a spacious family and entertainment room with a large egress window and a convenient two-piece bathroom, along with access to substantial storage space in the original basement. Beautifully finished and thoughtfully designed, this is a home that offers space to grow, room to gather, and the peace of mind of knowing the work has already been done.
