This four-bedroom family home has a rear garage basement entry that is suitable for lots with lane access. Access to the home from the rear double garage is through the groundfloor laundry room. From the front covered entry, a curved staircase leads to the main floor. The front-view living room has a sloping ceiling, raised panel windows and a gas fireplace, which combine to present a dramatic room as an ideal backdrop for entertaining. The dining area, with its corner window feature, is open to the living room with the possibility for expansion either way, if desired. The kitchen’s work island with rangetop, dual sinks with a window outlook and ample cupboard space are sure to meet with the approval of the cooks in the family. The adjoining breakfast area is open and bright with a large window and a garden door to the rear deck. The master suite, which also has access to the rear deck, is designed with a large walk-in closet and five-piece en suite. The three other bedrooms share a four-piece main bathroom. On the downstairs floor level, a generous-sized rec room with a gas fireplace leads off one side of the entrance foyer, with a den on the other side. This location, just off the front door, means the den is ideally placed to be used as a home office, if desired. The remainder of the basement is unfinished and is designed to accommodate a one-bedroom suite where local bylaws allow. Brick detailing on the exterior and the corner column at the entrance add to the classic appearance of this plan.
