This attractive split-level plan is the ideal family home, offering plenty of living space as well as room for expansion. Designed to suit a sloping lot, the living areas are situated at the back of the house and ideally placed to take advantage of a rear view. At the front of the house, full height castle rock flanks the covered entry and provides a contrasting backdrop for the clean lines of the three pillars at the corner.

Double doors lead into the foyer, which has a sloping ceiling and is bright with natural light from a skylight. The study, adjacent to the foyer, is ideally placed to serve as a home office. Visiting clients are immediately seen as they approach and just have to step from the foyer into the office.

The living room and dining area have large windows to open up the view and share central French doors that lead to a rear sundeck with steps down to the garden. The sloping ceiling in the foyer extends through to the dining room, opening up the space and adding design interest. The informal living area includes the kitchen, with plenty of cupboard space, and a delightful, fully glassed breakfast area with sliding doors that open to the sundeck.

Down three steps from the kitchen, the family room has a central gas fireplace for those cooler days and access to a rear patio to enjoy in the summer months. Upstairs, the skylight hallway leads to the front two bedrooms, which share a three-piece main bathroom. Bedroom three has a sloping ceiling that accents a large circle-top window.

The rear view master bedroom also features a sloping ceiling and has a five-piece en suite with a soaker tub, separate shower stall and double vanity. The walk-in closet in the master suite together with common linen and broom closets provide ample storage space on the upper floor. A partial daylight basement offers plenty of opportunity for expansion, if needed.

Access to the house from the double garage is through the laundry room. Accented castle rock and pillars combined with traditional siding and shakes create a timeless look for this plan. The house is 46 feet, 4 inches wide and 51 feet deep with 2,027 square feet of living space as well as an unfinished basement.
