Property description
Beautiful custom home on a double lot. This property is one of a kind with towering trees, and privacy like none other, and the basement is a full second living space with a kitchen and 1.5 baths. Everything was custom-built by the current owner's family. Everywhere you look there is storage space even when you don't expect it. The original kitchen cabinets still pop in this amazing hand-built kitchen. The views are second to none and pride of ownership is shown throughout the house. Don't miss your opportunity to own this one-of-a-kind gem in the heart of Elgin.
