This 1980 brick bungalow, situated on a 3/4 acre lot with a walkout basement, offers ample space for a growing family, plus significant potential for an in-law suite downstairs. The brick exterior is showcased from the balcony deck, which features wood plank flooring and a sturdy wood railing and looks out over mature trees and the river/stream at the rear of the property. You can also run your business from home in the sprawling outbuilding which includes propane heating and a walk-up second-story storage area; the outbuilding appears to be metal-sided with large access doors ideal for equipment or workspace. The main floor of this lovely home features an eat-in kitchen, dining room, and a living room with three sunny windows and access to the balcony deck. The formal dining room includes built-in wooden cabinetry and moulded trim that complement the hardwood floors and add character. The primary bedroom also accesses the balcony and provides a walk-in closet and a 3-piece ensuite bath. Two more spacious bedrooms, both with two closets, share the main bath, which was renovated in 2019. The lower level includes a full walkout with a rec room, a fourth bedroom or office with a floor-to-ceiling window, and a 3-piece bath with a shower, putting it well on its way to being a sunny in-law suite with a patio door to the yard and a separate entrance from the driveway. The lower-level rec room features a suspended/drop ceiling with large fluorescent fixtures and durable vinyl or tile flooring — a bright, flexible space for recreation or workspace. Alternatively, the separate entry provides a terrific at-home office with an adjacent 3-piece bath. Recent improvements include a new balcony floor (2024), central air (2023), furnace (2024), owned electric water heater (2021), and eaves troughing (2023). The rear lot line is at the top of the small hill at the back of the yard, beyond the stream; aerial views show the attractive river valley setting, significant tree cover, and open farmland beyond, offering privacy and scenic vistas.
