The family chef will enjoy having both a formal dining room and a kitchen where you can enterain. Access the back yard, BBQ area and garden easily from the kitchen or the basement suite. Leaded glass windows and the large modern windows with deep sills are part of the magic of this private and light-fiilled home.
