This is not just a home; it's a masterpiece of architectural ingenuity and thoughtful design. Creatively renovated from top to bottom by a skilled, professional cabinet maker and salvage artist, this 1 1/2 storey gem is a blend of historic charm and contemporary convenience - a unique opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind home in a desirable inner-city community. Every detail tells a story with reclaimed flooring adding a touch of history underfoot, while retro-look ceilings complement the period ambience. A mural by Canadian artist Wade Stout that once graced the side of a downtown building, has found new life here - repurposed as framed artwork within or as decorative panels outside. The kitchen is a culinary enthusiast's dream, boasting easy-clean concrete counters, a stunning rolled-steel back-splash, and a range of unique built-ins. There’s also breakfast bar seating and an adjacent cozy den. It’s hard to resist the invitation from the large soaker tub in the main-floor bathroom – hey, there’s room for two! It has a rain shower head above while a full-length custom mirror allows ‘hidden’ access to the ample walk-in closet of the adjoining primary bedroom with its private, south-facing deck. Upstairs, a bright generous family room with its own south-facing deck is a great place to relax. A large spare room in the basement is currently being used as a second bedroom. There’s a ‘dream’ laundry room, abundant storage, a 4-piece bathroom, an office and a hidden ‘green’ room along with access to the attached garage.
‘Hidden’ storage areas throughout the home provide organized and clutter-free solutions while other practical upgrades abound too. All plumbing has been replaced by Pex, electrical brought up to current standards, and windows updated to steel-clad fir - most are casement-style. There’s newer radiant heating throughout, while the exterior boasts fire-retardant and hail-resistant concrete panel siding and metal roofing, showcasing durability and safety.
The green oasis of the front yard ‘English garden style’ patio and fire-pit offers a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living.
The thoughtfully designed layout ensures that every inch of this home is maximized for efficiency and aesthetics. This home tells a story of a rich past and a vibrant present. Schedule a viewing and experience the magic for yourself.
