This compact split level offers comfortable, ground level family living with easy access to the out doors and excellent separation between the common and sleeping areas. Double doors at the covered entrance open to a foyer that leads into the spacious living room. A multi-paned bayed window brings lots of light into this room, while a cozy fireplace provides the focal point. The dining room is part of the formal entertainment area, but is separate enough to create a feeling of privacy. U-shaped kitchens are the most efficient to work in, and this one is designed with an eating bar in the breakfast nook and a convenient pantry for extra storage.

Sliding glass doors open to a sundeck with stairs down to a patio that is also accessible from the sunken family room. A handrail separates the kitchen and nook from the family room, creating a large, comfortable area sure to become a natural gathering place for family and friends. The main floor bathroom and laundry area is off the family room.

There is also access to the double garage from this area. On the upper floor, two bedrooms – one with a bayed window and seat – share a full bath. The master suite is a perfect retreat.

It features a three-piece ensuite, full walk-in closet and a private balcony for enjoying quiet moments. The traditional exterior styling is complemented by distinctive brickwork and is shown with cedar siding. However, it could be finished in vinyl or aluminum, depending on your taste and maintenance requirements.
