This 4 bed home has seen updates and gentle caretaking which has included a new roof in 2011, new mini-split heat pump technology and a new hot water tank just prior to listing. Enjoy the sunken living room in front of the gas fireplace when the weather's chilly or take your coffee onto the covered patio and enjoy the pastoral South BX views over the garden and fields beyond. With separate entrance into the basement, this home could be reconfigured to have a full basement suite or retain some basement space and create a small bachelor or micro suite space. With ample parking there's room for many vehicles out front...and then check out the rear yard. A separate garage/shop is flanked by a cold cellar and greenhouse which supports the extremely generous and flourishing garden space. This home has served its owner handsomely.

Currently hosting lovely tenants, showing requests will be in afternoon blocks on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays...Call your agent to book soon. This property may not last long!!
