Welcome to a home that blends timeless character with modern comfort in the highly sought-after Exhibition Park neighbourhood. With incredible curb appeal and charm, this warm and inviting home welcomes you the moment you arrive! Relax on the west-facing front porch and take in glowing sunsets, mature trees, and the energy of the park from baseball and football games to tennis matches, children's playground fun, splash pool fun, and community & social gatherings. It's all just steps from your door. Inside, original hardwood floors, large baseboards, detailed window trim, and vintage doors with original hardware speak to the home's character. The main floor is filled with natural light and is perfect for family life and entertaining. A bonus to the main floor is an added room on the back of the home, perfect for kids coming home from school (Victory PS, literally around the corner). If backyard entertaining is something you love, then you will find a good-sized deck highlighting a private, fully fenced, beautiful yard. Upstairs has two nicely-sized bedrooms, a recently renovated beautiful bathroom and a primary bedroom offering a serene retreat with large park-facing windows. What a view! On the lower level, recently updated, there is a beautiful family room, gorgeous bathroom with glass shower, heated floors (which extend into the laundry area) and a no-fog heated mirror. The fully fenced backyard offers morning sunshine and afternoon shade, ideal for pets or kids, with low-maintenance gardens. A detached garage and extended driveway provide parking for up to 5 cars, plus bonus laneway parking across the street. Mechanically updated for peace of mind: Roof (2019), Furnace & A/C (2018), Nest thermostat, 200-amp electrical upgrade (2021), and water softener (2023). This home is just a short stroll to downtown dining, shopping and amenities! This home truly combines comfort, classic charm, modern flair and beauty, and you will love it! (id:8860)
