The entry, up two steps to a covered porch, leads to a compact foyer. To the right, overlooking the porch, a guest room/den is ideally located to double as a home office. Ahead is a coat cupboard and a powder room, both situated for easy use by guests. The spacious great room includes a built-in gas fireplace, flanked by deep windows, as well as a door onto a terrace at the back, making this a room for all seasons. The dining room is open to the great room and separated from the kitchen only by a raised eating bar. Light will flood through the windows at the back, creating a sense of airiness in all three rooms. In the kitchen, a window over the double sink features an extra-deep sill, the perfect spot for plants and collectibles. The U-shaped counter configuration will save steps for the cook, and a built-in pantry provides extra storage space. Upstairs, the master suite overlooks the back garden, for privacy. The ensuite includes a soaker tub, lit by a couple of windows, as well as a shower stall. Double basins will help ease the morning rush-hour. A spacious walk-in closet completes the lay-out.

The double garage includes an entry to the foyer, as well as an enclosure for the furnace and hot-water tank. On the exterior, decorative shutters frame the mullioned windows and board-and-batten siding enliven the gables.
