Offering over 2,300 sq. ft. of living space, this substantial family home features 5 bedrooms and a full bathroom on each level. The welcoming centre hall introduces a traditional layout with a double living room to the left and an office and formal dining room to the right.

A second west-side entrance leads to another full kitchen and a second staircase to the upper level.
