With the garage situated at the back, making this home suitable for a wider lot, all eyes are on home itself. As a bonus, the garage becomes a drive-through, allowing access to the back yard for storing a recreational vehicle or a boat. An old-fashioned covered veranda completely surrounds the front and part of both sides of the home, giving the exterior an old-style farmhouse look. A winding path from the driveway leads to the front door, which opens to a traditional foyer and formal parlour. A two-way fireplace in the parlour is shared by the dining room, which also enjoys access to the veranda. A staircase in the front hall leads to the bedrooms on the second floor and to an unfinished basement below. A guest bedroom or study is situated behind the staircase, and includes a door to the veranda. Just across the hall is the main-floor powder room. Both the country-style kitchen and great room face the back garden. From the breakfast nook, a door opens to a covered deck. An angled work island in the kitchen can double as an eating bar. A traditional fireplace in the great room adds warmth and cheer throughout this open area. A sliding door off the kitchen reveals the laundry room, together with a large pantry and a coat closet. One door from the laundry leads to the home’s covered side entrance. Another opens into the double garage, which has space for a work bench along one side. Upstairs, the master bedroom features a four-piece ensuite with a pocket door to the toilet and a large linen closet. The two children’s bedrooms share a third bathroom. This home measures 64 feet wide by 62 feet, 6 inches deep, for a total of 2,234 square feet of finished living space.
