Inside, a bright, open-concept living and dining area welcomes you with a large front window and beautiful hardwood flooring. The cozy kitchen features granite countertops, while the main level also offers a primary bedroom, a second bedroom, and a full bathroom. There is also a bright, enclosed three-season sunroom (with insulated walls, ceiling, and floor) - a versatile space to enjoy. The finished lower level (with a side entrance) offers excellent flexibility for extended family, guests, or additional living space. This level features a spacious recreation room/bedroom, a kitchen area, a three-piece bathroom, laundry facilities, and plenty of storage. Enjoy the tranquil, nature-inspired setting, where the lush front yard attracts local birdlife, letting you birdwatch right from your front window!

The fully fenced backyard is complete with vegetable gardens, a goldfish pond, and is equipped with multiple rain barrels. There is also an impressive workshop/studio, offering abundant natural light through multiple windows, along with insulation and electricity for comfortable, year-round use. Adding exceptional value is the owned rooftop solar photovoltaic system, which generates an average of approximately $3,500 annually, helping offset energy costs while enhancing the property's long-term appeal.
