Nestled on a private 3.06-acre lot in desirable Porters Lake, this spacious and well-maintained home offers the perfect blend of comfort, efficiency, and future potential. Large windows throughout fill the home with natural light and showcase the peaceful surroundings, while the open-concept main living areas create an inviting space for everyday living and entertaining. The main level features three bedrooms, including a primary suite with ensuite bath and walk-in closet, plus an additional full bathroom. Efficient in-floor radiant heat with a time-of-day meter and a ductless heat pump provide year-round comfort and cost-effective heating and cooling. Recent updates include a new pressure tank and hot water tank (2023), a new microwave, and a new above-ground pool installed in 2024. The fully developed walkout lower level adds exceptional living space, featuring a large rec room, fourth bedroom, bathroom, laundry area, and utility room. With plumbing already roughed in for a wet bar, the lower level offers excellent potential for an in-law suite, secondary living space, or ultimate entertainment area. Step directly outside from the walkout to a new ground-level deck overlooking the private backyard. A standout feature of the property is the impressive double detached, wired garage built in 2020, complete with its own electrical service—ideal for hobbyists, storage, or workshop space. Additional features include a generator plug/panel, water treatment system, and ample outdoor space for family enjoyment. Conveniently located close to schools, parks, beaches, and everyday amenities, this property also benefits from the planned opening of a brand new French school in September 2027. Offering privacy, space, modern conveniences, and room to grow, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy country-style living just minutes from community amenities.
