Notable features incl: a 20'x120' lot with no space lost to parking; a garage large enough for current owner's RAV4, 4 spare tires, and their 3 bikes behind; a new combi-boiler installed in 2022 providing radiant heat and tankless hot water; a large garden shed/workshop custom-fabricated by Summerwood with storage (approx 10'x10') and a workshop (approx 5'x10').
