The real star of this property is the massive shop space which can accommodate multiple vehicles, workbenches, and storage. This is the perfect place for anyone who enjoys working with their hands, running their own business, or pursuing hobbies. The high ceilings also provide the opportunity to add a mezzanine level, which would be perfect for extra storage or a home office.

The generously sized lot allows for plenty of additional parking or driving thanks to its gravel laneway, and the home’s small footprint, only 420 sq ft of living quarters, allows for very little maintenance. This is the perfect property for anyone who wants to downsize without giving up their hobbies or workspace!

Though small, the living area still provides enough room for two spacious seating areas. Seamlessly flowing into the kitchen, the peninsula allows for meal seating and additional counter space for food preparation.

Despite having limited space, this kitchen area still provides plenty of storage and work areas. The floating shelves are both functional and stylish as the live edge wood perfectly matches the decor of the rest of the home.
