A quiet Katimavik crescent, two elementary schools just steps away, a deep pie-shaped lot and a full walkout lower level - there's a lot to appreciate about this home! Offering 3+1 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, the layout is bright, practical and easy to live in. The main level features a comfortable living room with hardwood flooring, crown moulding and a large bay window, opening to the adjoining dining room. The updated kitchen is surprisingly spacious, with an abundance of cabinetry and counter space, granite counters, stainless steel appliances and a pantry with pull-out drawers. A large window brings in natural light, while a corner fireplace adds character. Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a primary with PAX wardrobe storage and private access to the updated 4-piece bathroom.The finished walkout lower level is a real asset, considerably expanding the home's living space. A bright family room with patio doors opens directly to the backyard, while a fourth bedroom with a full-size window, 3-piece bathroom and convenient kitchenette offers excellent flexibility for teenagers, guests or extended family. An updated laundry room adds further functionality. Outside, the deep fenced backyard offers privacy, mature trees and plenty of room for children, pets, gardening or outdoor seating. Families will appreciate having Holy Redeemer and Castlefrank Elementary Schools around the corner, along with nearby parks and pathways. Shopping, restaurants, recreation, Kanata Centrum and Hwy 417 are all within easy reach.
