The big sell: This fully-renovated post-and-beam Eagle Harbour family home presents multi-generational accommodation thanks to a main level in excess of 2,000 square feet that contains four bedrooms (including a separate one-bedroom suite), together with two bedrooms and living quarters on the lower floor, and three laundry rooms in total. Upgrades undertaken last year include a newly-paved driveway, and updates to the appliances, bathrooms, floors, kitchens, and furnace, plus an electric vehicle charger was installed. Previous renovations had been performed to both the roof and windows.

A large two-car garage provides additional storage both inside and out, and the property is located close to Caulfeild Village, schools, and recreational activities.
