Built in 2012 and thoughtfully maintained and updated, every detail is designed to elevate your everyday living. Step inside and immediately feel the openness with an extra-wide layout flooded with natural light, soaring ceilings on every level, and rich architectural details like curved arches, statement cutouts, and a grand staircase that anchors the main floor. The living room's oversized windows frame the tree-lined street and flow seamlessly into the chef's kitchen, a true showstopper featuring Viking Professional stainless steel appliances, new Bosch dishwasher, granite countertops, and a generous island with seating perfect for gatherings. A deck just off the kitchen invites effortless indoor-outdoor entertaining with space for grilling, dining, or simply enjoying the spacious yard.

Convenience continues with second floor laundry featuring an LG washer and dryer. The lower level is designed for entertaining, featuring radiant flooring throughout, impressive 9' ceilings, a wet bar with wine and beverage fridges, and a custom entertainment system with surround sound, a 120" projection screen, and AV rack ($15,000 upgrade). An additional room with ensuite is ideal for guests, home gym, play room or office. Outside, enjoy the extra wide lot with a 2.5-car garage, low-maintenance turf yard, and professional landscaping, as well as the unparalleled longevity of a slate roof.
