This 2020 Havenview bungalow in The Bluffs is a former model home, so it's got some extras you won't find in other units. The brick exterior and the crawlspace are phase-one advantages that newer builds lack-making for solid storage space. Inside, it's all vinyl flooring (no carpet anywhere), with an open kitchen and dining area that flows right into the living room, where a gas fireplace anchors the space. Kitchen features a gas range and crown moulding on the cabinets, a nice touch for a downsizer. Two bedrooms sit on opposite ends for privacy, with the primary suite tucked away. Both bathrooms are on the main floor, plus a laundry room, so everything's accessible. The attached garage holds two cars, and there's room for a third outside. Out back, the deck got privacy panels added, perfect for morning coffee without neighbors peering in. It's positioned close to the clubhouse and lake, and you can get to Point Farms Provincial Park in under 5 minutes by car. Goderich is just 4 or 5 km away for groceries or dinner out. Property taxes run about $2,283 a year. Priced at $449,000, it's a bit under what nearby homes are listed at, but it's a leasehold, so keep that in mind. If you're looking to simplify, this is a practical choice.
