Inside the home
Built in 1911, this three-storey brick home on a quiet Holmedale crescent has woodwork that simply does not exist in newer construction. The dining room alone — full height dark wood panelling, built-in china cabinet, plate rail, and stained glass windows — is the kind of thing people restore for years to achieve. The foyer, living room, and staircase carry the same quality of original millwork throughout. The kitchen and basement are the honest trade-off. The kitchen is functional 1990s oak and white appliances, and the basement rec room is basic. Both need work. The bathrooms, however, have something most buyers would pay to add back: original claw-foot tubs still in use. Five bedrooms across three floors, a covered brick side porch with arched openings, a detached double garage, and a fenced yard round out a property that rewards buyers who understand what original century-home character is actually worth.
