About this home
Set on a generous 0.4-acre corner lot in a family-friendly neighbourhood just 7 minutes from Smiths Falls, 3 Forest Drive is a spacious 3-bedroom brick bungalow offering approximately 1,860 sq. ft. of above-grade living space. Inside, the layout offers plenty of room to spread out, with two separate main-floor living areas that easily accommodate everyday family life, entertaining, a playroom or a quieter place to relax. One is made especially inviting by a cozy natural gas fireplace. The centrally located kitchen connects easily to the surrounding living spaces, with a versatile area nearby currently used as an office that could also work well as a homework station, drop zone or additional household space. Three bedrooms and two full bathrooms complete the main level, including one bathroom with cheater access that could be reconfigured to create a private ensuite. Downstairs, the partially finished basement adds even more usable space with a den, a second natural gas fireplace, a full bathroom, plenty of storage and additional unfinished space ready for future plans. Outside, the 0.4-acre corner lot provides plenty of room to enjoy and make your own, along with a detached shed and an attached double garage with convenient inside entry. Important updates include the furnace and central air conditioning in 2020, shingles in 2019, deck in 2020 and paved driveway in 2023. With nearly 1,900 sq. ft. on the main level, flexible living spaces, three full bathrooms, practical updates and room to add your own finishing touches, 3 Forest Drive offers plenty of space both inside and out!
