Set well back from the road in the highly desirable neighbourhood of Westdale, this 1952 bungalow sits on a remarkable 75 by 182 foot (.3 acre) lot with a ravine running along the side of the property. Surrounded by mature trees and positioned away from neighbouring homes, the setting feels private, peaceful, and full of possibility. An enclosed front porch welcomes you and creates a charming entry before stepping inside. The main floor offers 1452 square feet with three bedrooms and original hardwood flooring. A large formal living room and separate dining room provide generous principal spaces ready to be refreshed or reimagined. The kitchen reflects its era and presents an excellent opportunity to design something truly special. The home is filled with original charm including detailed plaster ceilings and beautiful wood trim. The finished basement offers another entire level of living space including three additional bedrooms, a spacious recreation room, an apartment sized kitchen, second laundry area, and two bathrooms each with a shower. The home features both a side entrance and a walk down entrance to the basement that could be reopened. There is strong potential for an in-law suite or rental. A pull-down staircase leads to a finished attic with skylights that could serve as a playroom, studio, or exceptional storage space. The attached two car garage is very large and features brand new doors. This is more than a beautiful ravine lot. It is a solid, character filled home in one of Westdale’s most sought after neighbourhoods, offering immediate enjoyment with the opportunity to thoughtfully update over time. Don’t be TOO LATE*! *REG TM. RSA.
