The two story Victorian sits in the middle of the quiet residential street, hidden in the downtown core. The street is lined with similar houses, all with their own slight bit of personality in the form of paint, siding colours or even a brightly painted mailbox. The yard is actually quite large, from a city perspective. It's surrounded by a thigh high white picket fence, the gate opens and displays a small stone pathway leads to a set of wide brick steps at the front of the house.
The house itself is tall, dignified and inviting. The large, wrap around wooden porch, complete with a sing in front, softens the facade. The building itself is clad in white wooden siding, painted a soft mossy green colour, with white trim that matches the fence. Once side of the home boasts bay windows, framed in black, making them stand out. The entryway is grand, with double partial glass doors inviting you in, while a small stained glass window shines above it. On the other side of the doors are a set of sliding windows, framed again in black and surrounded by white trim, and another matching set on the upper level.
Entering through the double doors, the tall ceilings, hard wood floors and soft chandelier lighting create a warm feeling. The small entry bench sits across from some coat hooks along the wall, a small table and an umbrella stand. The long entry way leads all the way to the back of the house. A set of stairs is in the middle, leading to the upper floor. Moving down the hall towards the back of the house, is a small powder room.
Moving to the right, into the bay window room, the library is visible. The high walls hold built in bookcases along them, complete with rail and library ladder. The room has a nice brick fireplace, and a small grey fabric sofa. The bay window has been transformed into a window seat, and nearby stands a small wooden desk. Moving to the left of the entryway leads to a large living area, painted a soft cream colour. There is a sofa, matching the library one, and two matching armchairs. There is a small tv mounted above the brick fireplace. A chandelier hangs from the ceiling, as well a tables & lamps between the sofa and each chair. A credenza sits behind the sofa, a stereo, resting on the top, and a matching coffee table sits in front of the sofa,
Past the living area is a large wide open kitchen. There appliances are stainless steel and placed appropriately around the space. The cupboards are a pale green, while the counter tops are white quartz with green veining through them. Under the large window, facing into the moderately sized green yard, is a large country style kitchen sink. The room holds a large kitchen island, able to accommodate 3-4 people comfortably. A small table, sits in front of a set of glass patio doors leading to the yard.
Moving across the house, is a formal dining room. The chandelier lighting, blankets the room in soft lighting. A long, light coloured wood table sits in the middle of the room, with 10 matching chairs surrounding it. A china cabinet lines one wall, while pictures line the others.
The dark wooden steps leading up to the second floor are lined with a white sturdy rail. At the top of the steps is a long hallway. The hardwood floors are draped with a long runner, to soften the noise. The walls hold family photos as you move down the hallway. On the right, there are 2 doors. The first door leads into the large master bedroom. There is a large, soft looking queen size bed in the room, along with a small white nightstand on each side. There is a small fireplace opposite the bed, and a white dressing table nearby, complete with the small white stool. The bay window sports a comfortable looking window seat, complete with pillows and a small stool and lamp nearby.
A doorway at the end of the room leads through a walk in closet and into the master bath. The room has a washer and dryer tucked into the back corner, along with a sectioned off water closet. There is a large, quartz double vanity, complete with double mirrors. Tucked away near the water closet is a claw foot stand alone bath tub and next to it, a walk in shower. The walls are a light cream, the tiles are white, and the accents are all black.
On the other side of the hallway is 3 doors. The first being a bedroom, holding a double bed, small dresser and nightstand. The second door is to the Jack and Jill bathroom between the 2 other rooms. The last room is another bedroom, filled just as the other one. One bedroom is a soft blue, while the other is a soft yellow. The bathroom is decorated with grey. Grey tiles, quartz and accents. The bathroom has a single vanity, toilet, and a tub shower combination.
