Why this home stands out
What sets 263 Sherbrooke Drive apart is the combination of generous square footage, three full baths, and a 2002 build that hits the sweet spot between modern construction standards and established neighborhood character. Four bedrooms give you real flexibility — a dedicated home office, a guest suite, or room to grow — without sacrificing common living space. This is a home that works hard for the people inside it.
