A stylish new powder room offers modern European fixtures, including a high-end motion-sensor toilet with massage and heated bidet functions, and a designer vanity. The adjacent laundry room has been fully updated with new cabinetry, washer, dryer, and a utility sink. Upstairs, the primary suite is a private retreat featuring a beautifully refreshed bath with dual sinks, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. Two additional bedrooms share a stunningly renovated hall bath-one bedroom boasting a generous walk-in closet with attic access. The entire second floor showcases luxurious plush carpeting and designer lighting. The finished lower level with an egress window provides versatile living space-ideal for a recreation room, home gym, or office-all filled with natural light. For those who love the outdoors, scenic walking and biking trails and Townline Community Park are just moments away. With a new roof and siding (2024), this home is truly turnkey and move-in ready-the perfect blend of sophistication, comfort, and low-maintenance living.
