Inside the home
The story here is the land and the garage, not the house. The 0.44-acre lot backs onto Whitemans Creek with mature trees and wildlife — a setting that's hard to find this close to Brantford. The detached double garage is a serious structure: timber-frame construction, concrete floor, two bays, and a full upper loft that's been set up as a working woodshop. The house itself is a project. The kitchen and main bathroom are fully original — functional but well past their best days. The basement rec room is deeply dated. The upper floor has been stripped back to drywall and subfloor; a buyer will need to finish the second bedroom and bathroom before they can fully use the space. The covered front porch, rear deck with pergola, and the spacious primary bedroom with its vaulted ceiling and arched dormer window are genuine positives. This property suits a handy buyer or renovator who wants a large private lot and an outstanding workshop, and is comfortable taking on the interior work.
