Inside the home
This 1905 brick bungalow has genuine character — original arched columns, five-panel wood doors, and period millwork that most homes this age have long since lost. The bones are real, and they're intact. The trade-off is that most of the house needs updating. The oak kitchen, dated paint throughout, and worn surfaces are cosmetic work a buyer would take on themselves. The bathroom has a functional walk-in shower but is otherwise tired. The basement has two finished rooms plus a large unfinished mechanical and laundry area. The backyard is a practical size for Eagle Place — fully fenced, with a fire pit, pergola, and rear deck. No garage, but there is a side driveway. For buyers who want original character in an established neighbourhood and are comfortable with a renovation project, this is a reasonable starting point at this price.
- Significant original character details — arched columns, 5-panel wood doors, period millwork

- Partially finished basement with two usable rooms
- Updated front porch and deck
