1025 Hanshaw Road is a four bedroom home with two full baths and a one car garage, set against the RaNic Golf Club as a backdrop. The open green space behind the property gives it a quiet, scenic setting that most homes on this side of town cannot match. The roof is brand new and the siding is new as well. Those are two of the largest exterior costs a homeowner faces, and both are already handled here. Inside, the bathrooms have been updated, which is one less project a buyer has to plan or budget for. The primary bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom, and the whole home lives comfortably on one floor. That single level layout works for just about anyone: families who want everything on the same footing, retirees, or anyone planning to age in place. The large unfinished basement is another piece of the value here: it offers over 1,000 square feet that a buyer could finish, whether that becomes a family room, a home office, or an in-law setup down the road. Between the recent work, the extra space to grow into, and the setting, this one is worth seeing in person.
