Mornings are easier when school is a walk away! This bright, well-kept 3-bedroom raised bungalow is within walking distance of both St. Bernard's Catholic School and Regent Park Public School, making it a perfect fit for growing families. Step inside and head up to the main level, where hardwood-style floors, pot lights, and large windows fill the open living and dining areas with natural light. There's room for homework at the table, movie nights on the sectional, and holiday dinners with the whole crew. The kitchen keeps everyone together, with cream cabinetry, glass-front uppers, a tile backsplash, a gas range, a breakfast-bar peninsula for after-school snacks, and a pass-through to the living room room so you never miss a moment. All three bedrooms are on the main floor, ideal for kids young and old, including a primary with a ceiling fan, double closet, and sliding-door walkout to the covered deck. The updated 4-piece bathroom is ready for busy mornings and bath-time routines. Downstairs is where the family grows into the home. The 22-foot rec room features a gas fireplace, big bright windows, and custom pine built-ins, perfect as a playroom, teen hangout, or home office. A 3-piece bathroom with a glass shower adds convenience, and the large unfinished area offers space for laundry, storage, a workshop, or future finishing. Outside, the huge covered deck is ready for summer barbecues, birthday parties, and rainy-day play, while the private tree-lined backyard has plenty of room to run, plus a shed for bikes, toys, and gear. A paved driveway offers plenty of parking, and wall-mounted ductless units keep the main living areas comfortable in summer. Close to the lake, parks, downtown Orillia, and Highway 11.
