Inside the home
This 1918 two-storey went through a full gut renovation in 2018 and it shows. The main floor is open concept with a kitchen island, white shaker cabinets, subway tile, stainless appliances, and dark laminate floors that run through to the living and dining areas. The upper bathroom is a standout — soaker tub, separate tiled shower, and patterned encaustic-style tile. The basement has its own separate entrance and was refreshed again in 2023-2024 with a new wet bar kitchenette, a bedroom, and a 3-piece bath. It reads as a functional in-law suite or rental unit, which matters for buyers doing the math on this price point. The backyard is fenced and private but landscaping is unfinished — wood chip mulch, no sod. The side driveway fits two cars but there is no garage. Downtown East Ward location puts you within walking distance of the core.
