About This Home

As of May 2025

This bright and airy 3 bed home perfectly embodies a California-chic aesthetic with sun-drenched spaces and custom oak floors. Originally updated and expanded to the back in 2015, it has since had additional thoughtful improvements including newer windows and a custom outdoor grill area. The kitchen and living area seamlessly flow into the family room with heated floors and sliders to the backyard, an ideal layout for entertaining. The beautifully updated kitchen features a breakfast bar, quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and premium appliances. The inviting living room showcases a striking fireplace with custom built-ins, a cozy dining banquette and large picture window that welcomes abundant southern light. The family room is a serene retreat, bathed in natural light and enhanced by a wall of additional built-ins. The primary bedroom also enjoys its own separate access to the patio and backyard for those morning coffees or evening relaxation, and with a luxury bath with heated floors and designer finishes, it gives the primary suite a true sense of privacy. Two additional light-filled bedrooms with updated Jack & Jill bath comprise this ranch style home. Enjoy your spacious fully-fenced backyard and generous patio, perfect for al fresco dining. Wonderfully located in the heart of the North Shore, this is an idyllic community and with close proximity to schools, shopping and restaurants.
