The primary bedroom has a large walkin closet and a 4 piece ensuite. On the lower level, the family room with gas fireplace and walkout to the backyard is a natural gathering spot, and the 4th bedroom is tucked away on this level as well, with its own 4 piece bathroom.

The basement level offers a large open rec space and a generous cold cellar for storage. A double car attached garage with interior access adds daily convenience.
