Enjoy the vibrant activity of the neighbourhood from your covered front porch or retreat to your private, maintenance-free back patio for some solitude.

Experience the ease and comfort of a home that has been lovingly maintained and is ready to enjoy from day one.
03
PRIMO
PARKING
Parking is at a premium in the neighbourhood, making the private parking accessed off of Pine Avenue a fantastic convenience for daily life. Easily access the backyard through custom gates, which lead directly into the rear of the home adding functionality and ease to your daily routine. Don’t worry about finding a parking spot after a long day of work or fret about unpacking from the cottage or grocery store.
04
EXTRAORDINARY
LIVING ROOM
It is difficult to choose the best feature of the living room; the gracious room size, the South facing bay window or perhaps the built-in gas stove that provides both a refined aesthetic and a cozy atmosphere in those cooler months.
05
UNIQUE
LAYOUT
Recent trends show a preference for traditional layouts over open concept spaces, where you can see and hear everything. This home offers a more traditional layout, allowing for multiple distinct zones on the main floor, providing both privacy and versatility.  With west, east, and south exposures, and expansive windows and doors, the space feels open and expansive.

HOME
OFFICE
Enjoy the rare, private main floor home office overlooking the leafy neighbourhood,  a fantastic space for anyone seeking a tranquil environment to work, read, or have their own personal space. A perfect backdrop for productivity and relaxation. A second built-in space in the basement provides another option for a home office, homework space or craft station.
