This four-bedroom, two storey home boasts a “flex room” that would make an ideal studio, or exercise room, or even serve as a “rec room,” where teenagers could play their music and watch TV without bothering the rest of the family.

Plans include an unfinished basement that could eventually become an in-law suite or mortgage helper.

Entry is through a covered porch into an angled foyer. The den is to the left, and to the right and ahead is the U-shaped staircase that leads to the second floor.

The great-room complex lies just beyond the staircase and includes a gas fireplace that will cast its warm glow into the open-plan dining area and kitchen. French doors lead to a patio looking out to the back garden.

The dining room is separated from the great room by a prep island fitted with a double sink. The L-shaped counter configuration will save steps for the cook. Natural light will flow into the area through the dining-room windows and those over the double sink.

Natural light will flood into the kitchen through the window over the double sink. The L-shaped counter configuration will save steps for the cook, who will never feel isolated because the kitchen is separated from the dining area and great room only by a three-seat eating bar and prep island.

The laundry room includes a roomy cupboard for coats and there is a two-piece lavatory adjacent.

On the second floor, the master suite includes a roomy walk-in closet, as well as an ensuite with double sinks and a shower stall, plus a soaker tub with its own window.

The three secondary bedrooms share a three-piece bathroom with a tub and a double sink.

The flex room is located over the double garage, which has access to the laundry room, allowing it to double as a mud room. The laundry room includes a coat cupboard with folding doors, as well as a washer and dryer and a sink.

All ceilings measure nine feet high.

This home measures 32 feet wide and 55 feet deep, for a total of 2,418 square feet of living
