About This Home

As of July 2025

If you're looking for a place with room to grow and the potential to make it your own, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home could be the opportunity you've been waiting for. It starts with the basics: solid oak hardwood floors on the main level, a cozy living room, and an eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances-all updated in recent years. Two bedrooms, a full bath, and a mudroom keep things practical and simple upstairs. Head down to the full English basement, where you'll find two more bedrooms, another full bath, a flexible family or hobby space, storage, and a dedicated laundry room. Outside, you've got a backyard made for unwinding, complete with an above-ground pool, a hot tub, and a detached 2-car garage. Conveniently located close to public transit, this home offers both space and accessibility to meet everyday needs.
