Overview
Description
Welcome to 42 Canso Drive! Located minutes from the downtown core; Regional Hospital; CBU; and all amenities; this home has much to offer to its new owner(s) This property stands out - and not just for its size. Pulling up, one can easily envision time spent on the covered veranda. Stepping inside the front foyer, your eye will be drawn to the 10 ft tray ceiling in the formal dining room; there are also tray ceilings in the living room and primary bedroom. If a formal dining room is not needed or desired this area would make a lovely sitting room as it opens to the veranda. From here you enter the chef/bakers dream kitchen; offering an impressive island that is purposeful and also anchors the space. There is seating for 6+, a warming drawer and sink, along with storage. Custom cabinetry envelopes the space along 3 walls and features copious amounts of storage along with double ovens, a pot filler tap over the stove, breakfast/lunch nook and a separate pantry with floor to ceiling storage, all which elevate the kitchen to gourmet level. The propane fireplace along the back wall offers warmth and defines a gathering area. The open concept of this space allows for personal choice in furniture arrangement. Off the living area is access to the deck and above ground pool; a 2 pce bathroom and laundry are also in this hallway. The primary bedroom, as expected, is a sanctuary in itself, with a 5pce bathroom, walk in closet and tray ceiling; you can close the doors on the day and unwind. The main level offers 2 more bedrooms and a 4pce bathroom. Moving to the lower level you will find a large family and games room space with 2nd propane fireplace. There is also a guest or 4th bedroom with 3pce bathroom. This lower level space would be perfect for a multigenerational family if a separate living space was desired. A 2pce bathroom is located near the door to the double garage which is heated and offers additional storage along with ground level access. Call an agent to view.
