An innovative floor plan gives this stunning executive home a variety of options that would be ideal for a couple with careers -and with a family. As well as four bedrooms upstairs, a full suite on the main floor will accommodate either a nanny or perhaps the grandparents, who will be there to look after the children while their parents are at work. An arched brick entrance and double doors lead into the foyer, which has an immediate view of the formal living room.

A large, central fireplace, sloping ceilings and a bay window all help to make this large room an out-of-the-ordinary space for entertaining. The dining room is an extension of the living area, with french doors opening on to a partly-covered patio. A sliding pocket door closes off the kitchen when required.

The living area encompasses a spacious family room and a breakfast area quite large enough for all the family to sit down to their informal meals. Corner windows and sliding glass doors to a second patio make sure there is plenty of natural light for this area. The kitchen is particularly large, to suit a house of this size, with ample counter space, a pantry , and an angled counter that overlooks the family room.

The bedroom suite on this floor, labelled a parents’ bedroom on the plan, is the sleeping area that could be used by the nanny, or grandparents if the house is for an extended family. This spacious bedroom has a bay window, which provides an attractive sitting area, as well as a walk-in closet and a three-piece en suite bathroom with a sunken soaker club. A two-piece powder room, laundry room and coat cupboards complete the main floor.

The upstairs bedrooms surely offer something for everyone in the family – no sibling squabbles necessary here! The master suite is large enough to be a true retreat. A bay window here also will encompass a comfortable sitting area.

The five-piece en suite bathroom includes a double vanity and a sunken soaker tub. Bedroom two at the front of the house is not the largest of the secondary bedrooms, but it is privately separate from the others and is likely to be chosen by the eldest child in the family. Angled windows frame the student study, across from the three-piece en suite bathroom, which may also be accessed by bedrooms three and four .

The classic exterior is shown in traditional brick with a tiled roof. The house is 42 feet, 8 inches wide and 51 feet, 10 inches deep with 2,564 square feet of living space as well as an unfinished basement.
