Looking for an executive family home, like new, 2-5-10 New Home Warranty but with no HST? This home is full of “wow” and then some. The only unit available in this quaint, quiet and friendly complex includes a private fenced yard, open concept living, 9 ft ceilings, custom cabinetry, main floor powder room, and his & her master ensuite, but it doesn’t stop there. You have access to another 18,000 sqft of “wow”; you’re steps away from a clubhouse comprised of three tennis courts, a basketball court, craft room, media centre, two foosball tables, state of the art fitness centre, swimming pool, BBQ area with outdoor space, and a party room. You can wine, dine and entertain family and friends at home or on-site.
The garage is a tandem, but there is space for additional cars on the front pad. With one car in the garage, there is ample space for additional storage or a workshop.
The main floor is up a flight of stairs, but welcomes you to an open space flowing from the kitchen/breakfast area through the dining room to the living room. Access to the backyard is off the kitchen, which is cared for through the strata’s maintenance fees. A bonus 1/2 bath is next to the kitchen.
The second floor has the master bedroom with ensuite at one end with laundry and second full bath separating the master from the two additional bedrooms.
