This English Country Garden home, framed by a storybook white picket fence, sits on a truly exceptional 100' x 168' lot in Orchard Beach, south of Lakeshore Rd in Old Oakville.

Further 74 Howard Avenue enjoys coveted southwest exposure, bathing the home in golden-hour light. Cherished by the same owners for 30 years, this residence has been a wonderful home and location to raise their family.
