197 Clarence Street

This is a century home that has been freshened up cosmetically — new paint, laminate floors, updated light fixtures, a barn door, and a painted kitchen — without a full gut renovation. The bones are original and the upgrades are surface-level, which is reflected in the price. The living spaces flow well for the footprint, with a separate dining room, arched doorway, and a kitchen that opens to a side deck via sliding doors. The en-suite off the primary bedroom has a curved glass shower on the newer end and a 1990s corner jetted tub that hasn't been touched. The rear mudroom is unfinished and dates the back of the house. The deck needs work. The corner lot location puts you at a busy signalized intersection close to downtown — convenient for transit and amenities, but not a quiet side street.
