Inside the home
This 1855 century home is currently set up as a duplex, with a main floor unit and a separate upper unit accessed by an exterior staircase at the rear. The layout gives buyers the option to live in one unit and rent the other, or use the full house as a single family home. The bones are solid but most of the interior is original or lightly refreshed. The main floor living and dining rooms have painted plank floors and 1990s finishes. The kitchen has flat-panel white cabinets and laminate counters. The upper level bedrooms have been freshly painted and some have original hardwood. Both bathrooms are dated. A rear addition adds square footage but feels like its era. Key mechanical upgrades are done — new furnace in 2023 and a new AC unit in 2025. The fenced backyard is a good size, and the location puts you about two blocks from downtown Brantford.
