Tucked into a friendly neighborhood, this is the kind of home where morning walks, quiet coffee, gatherings with friends, and evenings outdoors become part of everyday life. And when you’re ready for a little city adventure, downtown is just a few short minutes away. There is so much to love about this house, from the backyard overlooking the pond to the open floor plan, basement, and three fireplaces. You will love the gourmet kitchen and its stunning countertops. The oversized island, 6-burner gas cooktop, & double ovens make everything from weeknight dinners to holiday entertaining feel effortless. The open floor plan keeps the kitchen connected to the living spaces and makes gathering with friends and family easy. The sunroom offers a cozy spot to relax, while the deck creates the perfect setting for dinner and drinks outside overlooking the stocked pond. The pond is full of wildlife, with turtles, blue herons, and even migrating Canadian geese making regular appearances. It’s a little bit of nature right in your backyard. You’ll love coming home through the welcoming courtyard and discovering the privacy that awaits beyond it. Set on 2 acres surrounded by nature, the setting feels wonderfully secluded while still being close to everything. And then there is the basement. We love the cozy, tucked-away feeling it brings — almost like having a mountain cabin getaway right inside the city. It’s the perfect place to unwind, relax, and escape without ever leaving home. At 198 Xavier, it’s not just about the rooms — it’s about the way the home makes you feel. Peaceful, welcoming, connected to nature, and designed for both everyday living and making memories.
