Ideally located and within proximity to pathways leading to the nearby Somerset Park which offers an array of amenities, including a playground, water park, and tennis courts.

This space offers ample room to remove your shoes and store your belongings in the sizable coat closet. Beautiful, solid hardwood flooring flows throughout the main floor, leading you to the formal dining area at the front of the home. Featuring a large window allowing for ample natural light while overlooking the picturesque front street and plenty of room is on offer for a full-sized table and seating for dinner parties and larger gatherings. Opposite the dining area lies a convenient, generously sized laundry room with a side-by-side washer/dryer and plenty of storage space. It also doubles as a mudroom with direct access to the double attached garage.
Showcasing oversized windows that allow abundant natural light to fill the space, the spacious living room offers numerous options for full-sized furniture sets. Settle down and enjoy the gas fireplace while setting the mood for intimate gatherings or serene relaxation.
The adjoining kitchen is truly the heart of this home. It has recently been updated with new quartz countertops, newer stainless-steel appliances, and abundant cabinet space, including a large corner pantry, which provides ample storage solutions. The centrepiece is a massive central island with bar seating for on-the-go meals and a massive stainless-steel sink for added functionality. Plus, easy access to the back deck via a glass sliding door makes for effortless entertaining with friends and family in the summertime.
The fully fenced backyard features large trees, plenty of yard space, and a freshly painted wooden deck ideal for al fresco dining and relaxation - an idyllic outdoor area for the whole family. Parking is also fantastic, with the attached double garage off the laundry/mudroom and extended driveway. The garage comes complete with insulation and convenient rafter storage.
Nestled around the corner is a perfectly private 2-piece powder room completing the main floor.
