Multiple gables, each with Tudor-style cross-bracing, in addition to stone-based pilasters and a front veranda, lend this three-bedroom bungalow character and appeal. The covered entry leads to a foyer with a vaulted ceiling, separated from the rest of the home by an archway. Directly ahead, past a coat closet, an angled corridor leads to the great room, dining area and kitchen, all sharing a vaulted ceiling. The great room’s gas fireplace, located in a corner, will cast its cosy glow as far as the dining area and kitchen. A doorway from the dining area, which overlooks the garden, leads to a partly-covered patio. The kitchen is separated from the dining area and great room by a six-sided island with a five-seat eating bar on one side.

The window over the double sink boasts an extra-wide sill, ideal for growing pots of herbs. The L-shaped counter configuration promises efficiency, and a large walk-in pantry provides extra storage space. A phone desk adjacent to the pantry is a thoughtful touch. The spacious master suite includes an ensuite bathroom with double basins, a shower stall and a soaker tub with a tiled surround.

A window seat overlooks the back garden. A display case near the room’s entrance will provide an ideal spot to show off collectibles. A roomy walk-in closet offers space for even the most fashion-conscious couple’s clothing and accessories. The two secondary bedrooms each include a window with an extra-wide sill and share a three-piece bath. From the double garage, there is handy access to the laundry room as well as a powder room located just outside the great room. This home measures 50 feet, two inches wide by 54 feet, six inches deep, for a total of 1,738 square feet of living space.

Ceilings are nine feet high throughout, except where otherwise indicated.
