This detached, two-storey house has all the elements of a desirable family home with an idyllic setting and spacious property, says one of the listing agents, Robert LePage.
The lot spans 45 by 162 feet and has a secluded backyard surrounded by trees. "It has a swimming pool and it backs onto the Mimico Creek," says Mr. LePage, who notes that a foot bridge behind the grounds leads to a park.
"There are other recreational things just beyond the gate you can access."
As for the brick structure, it has a 3,000-square-foot plan with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, as well as a lower level family room with a fireplace, a built-in bar and a rear walkout. "It's good space," adds Mr. LePage.
Interior finishes consist of tile floors and stainless steel appliances in the eat-in kitchen.
The principal rooms, including a rear dining room and a living room with sliding doors to a deck, have hardwood floors in a darker shade than the bedroom floors upstairs appear to be.
Some time ago, the original fourth bedroom was converted into a six-piece master bathroom.
For parking, there is a private driveway and attached, double garage.
