Centrally located and offering plenty of potential, this detached bungalow is a great opportunity for investors or buyers looking to build equity. For added peace of mind, the property has been PRE-INSPECTED, and all major items identified in the inspection report have been addressed by the Seller. See the Summary Report. The main floor features a practical layout with original hardwood flooring and trim throughout the living area and bedrooms. It includes a spacious living room with a classic fireplace mantel, a separate dining room, an eat-in kitchen with solid wood cabinets, a full bathroom, and a convenient main-floor laundry room. The lower level offers additional space, including a finished rec room, a cedar-lined storage closet, and an undeveloped area currently serving as a deep in-house garage (garage door is not functional), providing plenty of room for storage or future plans. The home is equipped with an upgraded 200-amp electrical panel. Outside, there is a paved driveway and a deep, partially fenced backyard with mature trees. The property offers solid bones in a great centre city location. As per the Seller's Directive, there will be no conveyance of any written offers prior to 3:00 pm on Tuesday, Sep 8, 2026, and all offers are to remain open for consideration until 8:00 pm the same day.
