Upstairs are four bedrooms, including the primary with full ensuite and custom shower. The main and upper floors await your decorating touches, offering the opportunity to personalize the home and make the space your own. The completely finished lower level provides an additional guest or extended-family suite with two bedrooms, den, full kitchen complement and separate rear access. The home is carpet free throughout. Major 2019 updates include the furnace, hot water tank, central air conditioning, shingles and pool liner. The location rounds out the offering, with convenient access to all the amenities of Kingston's west end while being approximately a 9-minute bike ride by Google Maps to Lemoine Point Conservation Area, a 337-acre natural area with approximately 11 km of waterfront and woodland trails. A special setting, a substantial home and the opportunity to make it your own. Come discover what makes 601 Forest Hill and this unique pocket of Kingston's west end so appealing.
