The main floor primary bedroom acts as a peaceful haven, complete with oversized windows. The chef's kitchen boasts solid wood cabinetry, quartzite countertops, and a striking basket-weave marble backsplash. A dramatic, custom-curved wall featuring a sleek glass-and-metal railing leads to the lower level, where 3/4-inch insulated cork floors bring exceptional warmth and comfort. Sharing the spotlight is the fully self-contained lower level suite that delivers endless versatility. It features a complete kitchen with an open living space paired with a generous bedroom ,semi-ensuite bath, laundry room, and a bonus workshop space.
