4 bed • Single Family
Dating back to circa 1911, this handsome Edwardian brick home offers a lovely blend of period charm and practical updates. Positioned on a west backing 50’ x 142’ lot, complemented by a newer double car garage - something of a rarity in this coveted pocket - and a welcoming, full-width front porch and back porch, perfect for relaxing and greeting passerby’s. Inside, you’ll find hallmarks of its era: notably high ceilings, nicely proportioned principal rooms and original millwork that lends a warmth throughout. Offering four well-sized bedrooms, alongside a finished attic complete with its own bathroom and loads of finished storage space. Key updates include most windows replaced in 2009, furnace/air conditioning and tankless hot water 2014. Central vac and a contemporary metal roof 1998 backed by a 50-year warranty, offering both peace of mind and a pleasing architectural contrast. With over 2,500 sq ft above grade, this property represents an exceptional opportunity in the heart of Old Oakville. Tucked along the south end of Douglas Ave, the setting offers mature trees and a quiet street yet is only a short stroll from the lake, downtown and nearby schools. While well maintained, the home presents an exciting canvas for those with vision, a chance to renovate and elevate a genuine heritage property. For buyers drawn to character and location, this is a rare offering, not least given the inclusion of a double garage. An enticing opportunity for a new family ready to make it their own!
