Inside the home
This is a purpose-built student rental that has operated as one for 15 years, a few blocks from Laurier Brantford and Conestoga College. Five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a finished basement rec room, and an 84 Walk Score make the income case straightforward. The finishes are functional rather than fresh. The kitchen has its original cabinets and white appliances. The bathrooms have been touched up over the years and are presentable. Bedrooms are small and mostly closet-free — fine for students, limiting for other uses. The furnace was replaced in 2018 and a new central AC went in 2024, so the mechanical side is in decent shape. Vacant possession is available May 2026, giving a buyer time to plan whether to continue renting or reposition the property.
