I have seen a lot of one and a half story homes in Scarborough but this has got to be the best I've seen in years. Unlike the smaller models this 1 1/2 story home has a bathroom on the second floor and a dormer over the stairwell. Situated on a very quiet dead end street it has a large lot of 41.88 feet by 122 feet and, as such, it is a Gardeners delight! It has been landscaped and boasts wonderful perennials and a water feature. The pond at its deepest point is 39" and houses gold fish year round. The waterfall runs over rocks and makes all the stress of the week disappear.
