SS 4/6. OTP 4/13. Your secret garden awaits! This home tour begins in the front yard with a self-sustaining garden oasis. Carefully designed with over 30 species of plants, the yard is a blooming masterpiece—planned so something is always flowering throughout summer. Step inside to a spacious living room with bay window and original oak hardwoods. Just off the living room is a formal dining area/flex space that flows into the eat-in kitchen. The kitchen features espresso cabinetry, ample prep space and opens to a window-lined dining nook full of natural light. Also on the main floor is a versatile bedroom with laundry hookups—for main floor laundry—and a convenient powder room. Upstairs are two generous bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom. The finished basement includes a large rec room, a 4th bedroom (window may not meet egress), a three-piece bath and a utility/storage room. Outside, a long front driveway leads to a single detached garage with attached sunroom. The fully fenced backyard offers excellent privacy in a quiet, mid-block East Fort Garry location—close to schools, parks, shopping, the U of M, transit and major routes to downtown. Come see this rare blend of nature, charm and location!
