An open plan kitchen and dining area make this plan ideally suited to the informal lifestyle that is preferred by many families today. In place of a formal dining room, space is given to a “great room”, encompassing a kitchen, seating and dining area designed for day-to-day family living. A three-sided fireplace provides an attractive element on its own and will add a cosy ambience on winter evenings. An abundance of windows, sloping ceilings and a useful recessed buffet space all add character to this eminently practical room. The adjacent living room shares the three-sided fireplace and offers the ideal place for entertaining guests before and after dinner. The country-style kitchen includes a central island with eating bar, range-top and separate wall oven. A garden door leads to the rear patio. The master suite, with its sloping ceiling, is situated at the rear of the house and will enjoy the garden view. A five-piece ensuite includes a separate shower enclosure and a soaker tub set under a large window. Access from the double garage is through a full-sized laundry room. The classic-styled exterior is highlighted by a handsome columned entrance and a covered veranda bordered by a low brick wall. The house is 46 feet, 8 inches wide and 58 feet, 10 inches deep with 1,551 square feet of living space. The design also includes an unfinished daylight basement, which takes advantage of the rear slope of the site and also allows for future expansion.
