Inside, the home is bright and welcoming, with expansive windows throughout the principal living areas that frame tranquil views and fill the space with natural light. The kitchen is warm and functional, featuring maple countertops, a centre island, and an easy flow into the dining and living spaces. The living room offers a cozyatmosphere, while the sun-filled family room with wall-to-wall windows provides a stunning vantage point to enjoy the property year-round. The main level includes two comfortable bedrooms and a well-appointed 3-piece bathroom.

Fully turn-key and updated, this exceptional waterfront home is ready to be enjoyed from day one. (id:66635)
