Big country in style, modest in size, this family home features a picturesque exterior and a modern, open interior. Decorative pillars frame the covered front verandah and the entry, which leads to an open foyer with vaulted ceilings. A powder room and coat closet are centrally located on one side of the foyer, while the other side leads to the stairs to the upper floor. A generous-sized study privately situated just inside the entrance is highlighted by a see-through gas fireplace and windows that overlook the front porch. Sharing the see-through fireplace with the study is the great room – surely one of the most popular contemporary plans. This great room is enhanced by sloping ceilings with views from above and french doors that open on to a large rear sundeck with stairs down to the back garden. The kitchen, dining room and great room function as parts of a whole, with access to the sun deck as well as a covered side deck off the dining area. The kitchen has ample countertop space, a pantry and a phone desk. A sliding pocket door separates the kitchen from the laundry area and the side door. Upstairs, the master bedroom is a true suite retreat, overlooking the rear and occupying the full width of the house. The five-piece en suite includes an oversized shower stall and a large soaker tub that is separated by a half-wall. Two secondary bedrooms share a three-piece bathroom. Bedroom No. 3 enjoys the added luxury of a vaulted ceiling and a walk-out balcony. Detailed window treatments add design interest to the exterior and durable vinyl or aluminum siding would provide easy-care options. The house is 43 feet wide and 48 feet, 6 inches deep with 1,888 square feet and an unfinished basement.
