Beautiful gardens, armour stone and flagstone added in 2022, and a spacious deck create a wonderful space for relaxing and entertaining. The elevated position of the home overlooks a sunken, wooded wildlife garden, providing a peaceful and private setting. Improved drainage has been thoughtfully designed to flow through a natural dry stream bed leading to the municipal drain. An outside-air-vented hobby room is an added bonus, ideal for projects and paint drying. An EV charger installed in 2025 adds further convenience for today's lifestyle.
