This 1910 semi-detached sits directly on the Grand River — the backyard ends at the water's edge. For a house on a street this close to Paris downtown, that setting is genuinely unusual and hard to replicate at this price point.
Inside, the main floor holds up well. Hardwood floors, crown moulding, and a separate living and dining room give it the proportions of the era. The kitchen has been refreshed with white beadboard cabinetry and glass-front uppers, but the appliances are older white models that will likely need replacing. The upstairs bathroom has been updated and includes heated floors.
The staircase and primary bedroom retain original pine and dark-stained wood details — period character, but showing their age. Upper bedrooms have newer laminate. The basement is full and unfinished. One bathroom serves three bedrooms.
