This compact basement-entry design would be the ideal starter home. The plan includes two bedrooms and a third room that could be used as a den or additional bedroom as desired. The rear of the basement is roughed-in for a bathroom with space for a two-bedroom suite or for expansion as the family grows and when the budget allows. The central foyer divides the entrance from the double garage and the basement-level den or optional third bedroom. A central laundry room includes a tub and useful counter space as well as a window for natural light. Upstairs, the large front living room has a full vaulted ceiling and a gas fireplace. An arc-top feature window and a railing open to the foyer below add design elegance and expand the feeling of spaciousness. A pocket door leads to an ample-sized kitchen which is designed to meet all the requirements of the home cook. It encompasses double sinks under a window, a full-sized pantry and plenty of counter and cupboard space. Beyond the kitchen, a bright dining area has a side window and a sliding glass door to the large rear sundeck. The master suite also enjoys access to the sundeck and has a walk-in closet and three-piece en suite. The secondary bedroom has an attractive corner window and is located across from the central bathroom. Separate broom and linen closets provide additional storage. The house is 38 feet, 8 inches wide and 42 feet, 10 inches deep with 1,136 square feet of living space and an unfinished basement. The exterior is simply detailed with horizontal siding and cedar shakes, brick accents and pillar-like trim.
