Hamilton, Ontario
3 bed • 1 bath • Single Family
Larger than it looks! This charming detached home is nestled on a quiet, family-friendly street with wonderful neighbours. A rear addition creates a spacious second-floor primary bedroom, while the current third bedroom is being used as a family room and can easily be converted back into a generous bedroom with an existing closet. Major updates include a new furnace and central air conditioning (installed Spring 2026) and recent interior basement waterproofing with a sump pump and battery backup for added peace of mind. Enjoy the bright enclosed front porch/sunroom, perfect for relaxing year-round. A convenient side entrance from the kitchen leads to a cozy deck leading to the beautifully maintained backyard, complete with mature gardens, a patio and a private seating area. The freshly painted painted family and dining rooms add to the home's move-in-ready appeal. An excellent opportunity for first-time buyers or a growing young family, ideally located close to schools, parks, and everyday amenities.
