Well-designed family home. Bright and cheery with a large yard. Very cozy in the winter with a wood stove and great access to the local trails.
The space
2 bedrooms and bath on the upper floor, including the larger master. The main floor has a kitchen, dining, and living room with 70" TV. The lower floors have an additional bedroom, bathroom, wood stove, family room and laundry, with walk-out access to the back yard.
Guest access
4 floors with short stairways between each. Level main and rear entrances.
Notes
This is remote Northern Canada! It can be COLD winter for 8 months of the year. We love it because we can snowshoe, cross-country ski, and ice skate every day if we want and then curl up beside a warm fire in the family room. The other seasons are very short, but incredible for outdoor exploration on hiking trails, lakes and rivers.

My wife and I love to travel. We are also very active in our home community, volunteering with many different clubs. We hike, snowshoe, ski, ice climb, paddle, cycle, and curl. We also love to work with wood and paints, building projects, restoring furniture, and renovating. We are both geologists working in the local mines.
