Additional light pours in through patio doors off the dining room, creating a bright, welcoming space. The eat-in kitchen features modern ceramic tile flooring, while carpeting continues down the hall to three well-sized bedrooms, one converted into a cozy sitting room. A full bathroom completes the main level. The lower level offers a laundry room, spacious recreation room with a wood stove, an office, and a partially finished area with future potential. Wired for an alarm system, fibre internet and telephone, electric hot water, and zoned electric baseboard heating. This south-facing home is surrounded by natural woodland, landscaped yard, shrubs, and established perennial gardens. The private backyard is ideal for playtime or barbecues. Spotless, well maintained, and move-in ready.
