The main level showcases rich cherry hardwood flooring and an impressive floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with a high-efficiency wood-burning insert. The well-appointed kitchen includes cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, and a walk-in pantry, and opens seamlessly to a bright sunroom and rear deck overlooking the private yard. This level also includes a laundry area and direct access to an oversized 2.5-car garage.Upstairs, maple hardwood continues throughout the generously sized bedrooms, including a spacious primary retreat. The fully finished walkout basement expands the living space with a second wood stove, a bar area, rough-in for a kitchenette-ideal for extended family or guests-and an expansive cold room.Outside, a separate 34' x 40' detached shop offers excellent functionality, complete with insulation, 100-amp electrical service, and its own driveway-perfect for hobbyists, vehicle storage, or a workshop. With no rear neighbours, scenic surroundings, and direct access to nearby forests, trails, and the Nottawasaga River, this property delivers a rare combination of privacy, space, and convenience-all on a school bus route.
