Inside the home
This 1920 brick two-storey has held onto most of its original character — hardwood floors, period millwork, and a wood staircase that most renovators would be happy to find intact. That's the upside. The tradeoff is that this house needs real work. The front porch is worn, the kitchen and bathrooms received budget updates in the 2000s that now look tired, and several rooms have drop ceilings that cut against the home's bones. The third-floor loft is unfinished and carpeted in aging broadloom. The location is a practical one for anyone connected to Laurier Brantford, the General Hospital, or Highway 403. At $499,000, buyers are paying for the lot, the brick structure, and the upside — not a finished product.
- Solid red brick construction from 1920
- Original hardwood floors preserved throughout main and upper levels
- Original wood staircase and millwork intact
