A dramatic arched entry greets visitors to this contemporary one-level design. The stone facing on the four columns is repeated along the front of the house, adding to the street appeal. Just inside the front door, the foyer offers a view to the great room in the centre of the house and to the sundeck beyond.

Nine-foot ceilings are vaulted in the great room, adding to the feeling of spaciousness. The great room has a built-in entertainment unit and a gas fireplace on one wall. One entire wall of windows overlooks the rear sundeck — a sure guarantee that this multi-purpose space will be full of natural light.

A contemporary kitchen with a combined eating bar/work island joins the great room, providing a large cheerful space for casual entertaining. A box window makes a good place to grow herbs for cooking while a large corner pantry offers valuable storage. The dining area off the kitchen could be constructed with a built-in buffet for dishes and table linens.

A french door from the kitchen leads to a large rear sundeck, which is partially covered to provide protection from the elements. There are three bedrooms (one facing the front of the house could easily be a den) and each is well separated. The master bedroom has a luxurious ensuite bathroom with a shower as well as a soaker tub.

There is also a french door leading to the rear sundeck. The additional bedrooms share a three-piece bathroom. This house measures 46 feet wide and 61 feet 10 inches deep.

It has 1,588 square feet of living space and includes an unfinished basement.
