Upstairs, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms and a well appointed laundry room. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with downtown views, a two way fireplace, and a spa-inspired ensuite featuring a deep soaker tub, steam shower, dual vanities, and a custom walk-in closet. The fully developed lower level adds even more versatility, with a cozy family room, games area, wet bar, and a beautifully designed wine room. A fourth bedroom, full bathroom, and dedicated home gym complete this level, offering space for guests, relaxation, and wellness. Outside, enjoy a private, south exposed yard with a pergola-covered deck, two gas lines for outdoor entertaining, and low-maintenance landscaping, all set against an exterior finished entirely in aggregate. Additional features include air conditioning, in-floor heating in the basement, foyer, and bathrooms, a gym-sized steam shower in the basement, a new washer and dryer, custom millwork, 9ft doors, vaulted ceilings, hidden safe room, and an oversized heated garage.
