Gabled roof lines, a large, pillared porch and brick accents give this handsome family home instant curb appeal. Inside the raised entrance, the study off the foyer is essentially a bonus room that could be used as a den or a home office. As the room also has a clothes closet, it could be used as a guest bedroom, if desired.

On the opposite side of the foyer, the living room and dining room are sure to impress the guests. The living room has a gas fireplace to make sure there is a cosy focus during the winter months and the room is open to the foyer, to expand the feeling of space. Decorative columns flank the entrance to the living room and dining room, where a tray ceiling imparts an agreeable sense of formality.

This room also is open to the foyer and contains a useful buffet space. The family area is truly expansive, with a large, U-shaped kitchen that includes a work island with eating bar, a walk-in pantry and double sinks that overlook the sun deck and the back garden. Sliding glass doors from the breakfast area open to the partially covered deck.

Decorative railings are all that separate the open family room from the kitchen and breakfast area. A large laundry room behind the family room is accessed from the hallway and from the double garage. A powder room, a coat cupboard and a display shelf in the foyer complete the main floor.

In the upstairs sleeping area, the master suite at the rear of the house has an impressive en suite bathroom, with a shower, soaker tub and double vanity. An extra-Iarge walk-in closet will accommodate his and her clothes with ease. Bedroom number two is also at the rear of the house, and shares a three-piece bathroom with bedrooms three and four, at the front of the house.

All three bedrooms are enhanced by attractive bayed windows. The house is 49 feet wide and 46 feet deep with 2,444 square feet of 0 livingspace and an unfinished basement.
