About this home

Inside the home

This 1895 home has been taken down to the studs and rebuilt inside. New siding, roof, windows, LVP flooring, kitchen, bathrooms, and both front and rear decks — there is very little left that is original. The kitchen is practical and well laid out: white shaker cabinets, subway tile backsplash, and a peninsula with bar seating that opens to the main living area. The main floor also has a proper laundry room with backyard access. Upstairs, two bedrooms are supplemented by two large bonus rooms under the roofline — usable as offices, playrooms, or additional sleeping space. The lot runs deep and backs onto the Shallow Creek Trail with no rear neighbours. The crawl space means no basement. Several interior photos are virtually staged.
