About This Home

As of February 2020

Great starter home. Living is easy in this impressive spacious home with a convenient location to schools, trails, restaurants, shopping, minutes to downtown or freeway access. The open floor plan encompasses four spacious bedrooms with plenty of square footage for creating precious memories, study, sleep and storage. Three conservative bathrooms, and an inviting light-filled kitchen with plenty of counter space. Enjoy a cup of tea at the breakfast table finishing a crossword puzzle. The expansive family room opens up to a rear deck and pool. An abundance of wall space throughout the house offers lots of options to display artwork. Towering ceilings in the homey living room will have you dreaming of a roaring fireplace as you catch a nap on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Master bedroom is enormous, complete with walk-in closet and ensuite, ensures you will have plenty of seclusion and privacy.
