This is a 2647 square foot two-storey house on a quiet crescent in Waterdown East, sitting on a 31-foot frontage lot. It's got 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms total (one is a half bath), which is plenty of space for a growing family. The place was built in 2008 and has been well cared for. You'll find stone and vinyl siding outside, and a paved driveway that fits 3 cars, plus an attached garage. Inside, the main floor has hand-scraped hardwood and California shutters throughout, which gives it a warm feel. The kitchen has quartz counters, stainless steel appliances, and a big island with seating, plus a breakfast nook and coffee bar. There's a dining room with a built-in servery, and a family room that's 21 by 14 feet, so there's lots of room to spread out. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has a walk-in closet and a 5-piece ensuite with a soaker tub and double sinks. The other three bedrooms are good sizes too. The finished basement adds a rec room and a games area, plus laundry and storage. Out back, there's a patio and mature gardens, though the yard isn't huge. You're close to downtown Waterdown's shops and restaurants, and it's an easy drive to the Go Train and highways. Prices nearby are around $1.15 million, and this one's listed at $1,199,900, which seems in line given the condition. It's a solid, move-in ready home.
