1898 SPRINGRIDGE DRIVE

Welcome to 1898 Springridge Drive, a charming brick bungalow set beneath a mature maple in Springridge, one of Orleans' most sought-after neighbourhoods, where bungalows like this rarely come up and the location is hard to beat. Tucked on a quiet street, you're a short walk from the Cardinal Creek Karst trails for walking, cycling and cross-country skiing, a nearby pond where you can spot ducks, geese and herons, Varennes Park, several schools and grocery stores. Getting around is just as easy.

Just east of Trim Road, you're minutes from Trim Station and Park & Ride, where you can catch the LRT and OC Transpo buses into the core, and Highway 174 and Frank Kenny Road make commuting by car quick in any direction. Inside, a covered front porch leads to a bright foyer with leaded glass and French doors to the living room, with hardwood and an inlay border, crown moulding and a gas fireplace. The kitchen offers plenty of cabinetry, a full wall of pantry storage, a newer dishwasher and a breakfast nook, and the sunroom beyond opens onto the deck.

The nearly 20-foot primary bedroom has two double closets and an ensuite with his and hers sinks, a stand-up shower and a soaker tub, and a second bedroom, a full bathroom and main floor laundry with inside garage access complete the level. Updates include a roof with a 50-year warranty, newer vinyl flooring and central vac, while the basement has a rough-in for a future bathroom. The yard has private backyard with a well-kept deck and large driveway.

This is easy one-level living in a walkable, well-connected neighbourhood that people love to call home
