Welcome to your new sanctuary! This custom ranch home was built with energy efficiency and lasting stability in mind. It comes with thermal pane windows, a metal roof, Bermuda shutters, an insulated garage door, storm gutters with underground drainage, and was framed with 2 X 6 studs for added insulation value. The monthly electric bills average $115 and this home is easily insurable - at a lower cost than many! Step into a world of warmth and comfort as you enter the open-concept living space, where you’ll find granite countertops throughout the kitchen and baths. Custom tilework on the large screen porch and both baths creates a rich atmosphere that sets this home apart from others. You will also find a number of tasteful built-ins in each bedroom, and custom trim-work throughout the entire home. Sliding glass doors lead to a backyard oasis, filled with pathways to quaint sitting areas and lush gardens. Here you can also enjoy a large covered outdoor living area for entertaining guests or just relaxing after a long day with your favorite beverage, as you watch the wildlife and enjoy the serenity. The extended 2-car garage contains a custom laundry area with tile and cabinetry as well as a small workshop with large custom cabinets for ample storage space. Situated in the much-desired Royal Trails subdivision and overlooking a wetland pond, this property will surround you with calming nature while still keeping urban amenities just a stone’s throw away.
