Inside the home
This 1880 brick two-storey is the kind of property that attracts investors and first-time buyers for the same reason: a flexible floor plan and a price that leaves room for upgrades. The main floor has good bones — high ceilings, crown moulding, and a bedroom with an original fireplace surround that still has character. The split condition is the story here. One bathroom has been properly updated with a glass shower and modern vanity. The kitchen is still 1990s original — blue laminate counters, drop tile ceiling, brass hardware. The upper bedrooms rely on cast iron radiators and several rooms are compact with sloped ceilings and no closets. The painted brick exterior has visible peeling on the side wall and needs attention. The rear yard is fenced and flat. The location — a short walk to Laurier and downtown — is the property's strongest asset for anyone thinking about rental income.
