Looking for your perfect home? A place to raise your children, making memories of Christmases and Halloweens, birthdays and Mother’s Days? Do you want to be able to move right into your new home without the hassle of renovating it yourself? Then look no further because this extensively renovated, immaculate home is ready and waiting for you to move in and start making those memories.
This lovely 3-bedroom, 1 1/2 bath home is located on a quiet side street where you’ll be surrounded by friendly neighbours you’ll eventually come to cherish not only as friends but extended family. Shopping trips with your best friend from next door to the nearby South Centre Mall are something you can start planning immediately. There will be things you just have to get for your new home, and what better way to make a new friend than to ask her to show you the best place to purchase that special rug for near the back door or that wreath to hang on the front door.
Become exercise buddies at the gym of the popular William Spry Centre. Once you enroll the kids in swimming lessons at the Spry Centre pool, it’ll be a fun day for the Moms to sit and watch the little ones learn their way around all that deep water. St. Paul’s Church and St. Michael’s Catholic Church are both within a short 1 km radius as well. And if you want to go farther on your day trips about the area, the bus route is just at the end of Crescent. Walk on down there, hop aboard the bus to everywhere and leave your cares behind.
Lots of renovations make this cozy home a spectacular buy. You’ll be able to move right in and enjoy all the upgrades with no worries. In 2003, major improvements included a new roof and new furnace, along with a new sundeck. Just add a few deck chairs, and you’re ready to sit down and enjoy the mature perennials, trees and shrubs growing in your own well-manicured fenced yard. Add a few more deck chairs and a grill, some twinkling lights, maybe a fountain and a rose trellis and the neighbours will flock over with food in hand to share those warm summer evenings. Never fear, when the party’s over, your 12 by 16 shed can hold all of your yard equipment, deck chairs and other extras until it’s time for the next celebration.
Be prepared to fall in love with the kitchen in this cream puff of a house. In 2005, the
kitchen was lovingly renovated, making it a place where you’ll want to spend time creating your favorite meals. Beautiful and durable granite counter tops with undermounted sinks, ceramic tile, white shaker cupboards and halogen lights make cooking (and clean-up) a breeze. Christmas, Easter or New Year’s Eve is sure to find you serving fabulous meals to those you love. You’ve spent the day cooking up a storm and now the food is handsomely served in the newly redone dining room, for all to enjoy. And if Grandma has a hot flash from all that turkey and cherry pie, simply turn up the revolutions on your remote-controlled ceiling fan without leaving the table, and get her cooled down in a hurry.
Not to be outdone by the dining room, the living room has its own remote-controlled ceiling fan as well, so you don’t have to get up from your comfy recliner to adjust the breeze. Sliding window panels are also a nice touch here, and allow some of the outdoors to come in, in just the right amounts.
The natural hardwood floors in all three bedrooms have been recently refinished, and of course, are the envy of the neighbourhood. These rooms are also freshly painted, so everything is just like new and easy to maintain. A brand new ceiling fan has also been added to the master bedroom to keep that night air circulating while you sleep and dream of another day in your cozy hideaway.
The main bath was totally renovated in 2005 and features a bathtub with sliding doors as well as easy-to-maintain floor-to-ceiling ceramic tile. A new vanity resides here as well. And what have we here? Taking a cue from the kitchen, we have another granite counter top and new halogen lighting. to complete this stylish upgrade.
The rec room, located in the basement, has fresh paint and even better, those folks you know and love, the previous owners, were kind enough to leave behind the pool table!
Now you not only don’t have to renovate, but fun itself is waiting for you and your family and friends to show up! Also for the comfort of your family and friends, a half bath is adjacent to the rec room.
But alas, life isn’t all fun and games, so there is a laundry room and workshop down here as well, filled with ample storage space for all those things that every family needs – old Easter baskets, Christmas lights that no longer light, outdated magazines and boots that leak, tote bags that hide in the darkness under the shelves when we need to tote something, and of course, that turkey roaster that you looked high and low for and could not find during all of December and finally replaced with a new one that’s just not quite the same.
The front entrance features a front screen sliding door, new in 2004, the same year that new windows and patio doors were also added. The side entrance steps were replaced in 2006. Not so glamorous, but very important anyway, is the new chimney that arrived in 2009, and the new fiberglass oil tank with a 30-year warranty that was installed in 2011. So let’s see, in 2041, that warranty will be over, but all the great times you had living life in this house will still be as fresh in your mind as the day they happened.
