Nestled on a beautifully landscaped half-acre lot, this home is just a short walk from local shops, essential amenities, the waterfront, and scenic walking trails.

The main floor continues to impress with a spacious dining room, complete with a swinging butler’s door leading to the pantry, prep room, and a generously sized kitchen. A convenient two-piece bath and access to the side deck complete this level. Ascending the grand oak staircase to the second floor, you’ll find the expansive primary bedroom offering breathtaking water views. Through double French doors, the primary dressing and closet room features built-in cabinetry for ample storage. This level also includes two additional spacious bedrooms, a dedicated laundry room, a four-piece bathroom, a second three-piece bath with a luxurious soaker tub, and access to both the secondary staircase and the third floor.
