Welcome to a beautifully redesigned Victorian-style residence where timeless charm meets thoughtful modern living. Tucked away on a quiet, established street, this enchanting 1939 home with 4+1 bedrooms feels straight out of a fairy tale warm, inviting, and full of character you simply can't replicate today. From the moment you arrive, the professionally landscaped front and backyard set the tone. Inside, classic architectural details blend seamlessly with refined finishes, including quartz countertops, updated electrical, added insulation, redesigned bathrooms, and carefully curated spaces throughout. Upstairs, the stunning primary retreat offers a private escape, complete with a spa-inspired ensuite featuring heated floors and a walk-in shower with bench. Three additional bedrooms - including the original primary provide flexibility for families, guests, or home office needs. The spacious backyard is designed for both relaxation and play, featuring a new gazebo, additional storage shed, and custom-built shed perfect for outdoor entertaining or quiet evenings at home with electrical built in. With a refreshed exterior, new appliances, reverse osmosis system, and countless thoughtful touches, this home has been lovingly reimagined while preserving the charm that makes homes of this era so special. The basement room is currently being used as a 5th bedroom but can be converted to an office or den. Well maintained and beautifully updated, opportunities like this are rarely found in such a sought-after East Galt neighbourhood. A truly magical place to call home.
