- BY JANE PINZHOFFER FOR THE RECORD

The setting couldn’t be better. This establishe­d Laurelwood community is right in the heart of everything Waterloo has to offer. Extremely close to scenic walking trails and parks, including Laurel Creek Conservati­on Area with its approximat­ely 8 kilometres of trails through mature forests and grassy meadows. Bus service is just down the street, as is a grocery store, drug store, banks, restaurant­s, the YMCA, and the library, plus the shops and services at the Boardwalk at Ira Needles are a short drive away. Both Sir John A. MacDonald Secondary School and Abraham Erb Public School are easily walkable and St. Nicholas Catholic School is minutes by car.

Host a private screening of your favourite films for family and friends in the private theatre room with a state-of-the-art audio-video system. If you need a large space for a baby shower, birthday party, or other function, the event room is complete with a kitchenett­e, fireplace, and billiards table, or you can barbeque in the grilling gazebo all summer long. One parking space, personal storage lockers, and bicycle storage is also included.
