The Garden Suite is a spacious single-level residence on the lower level of Vinson House. It is accessed from Gordon Avenue through a winding pathway leading to an attractive sunken entry courtyard. A large mud and laundry room provides access to a private garage at the rear of the residence. The home features a generous open living/dining/kitchen area with French doors opening onto a private sunny garden patio. There are two large ensuite bedrooms, a study, and powder room. Large window wells bring additional natural light into the home. The suite features traditional wainscoting and other heritage-style details in keeping with the character of Vinson House. In addition to the two sunken private courtyards, the owners will share the front Edwardian garden. The area is approximately 1,953 square feet.
