Description

Expect to be impressed by this charming home featuring an oversized tandem garage (30' x 18') and a deep 150-foot private lot. The garage is ideal for two vehicles with additional side storage, or the perfect space to pursue your hobbies—fully insulated and equipped with a 100-amp electrical panel and separate entrance door. The concrete driveway accommodates 4+ vehicles, while the spacious, tree-covered backyard offers privacy and tranquility with no rear neighbours. This property comes with full approvals and all permit fees paid to convert the home into a duplex, and it can even be transformed into a triplex by converting the existing garage into an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). All approved drawings and documentation are available in the supplements—an exceptional opportunity for investors or those seeking a multi-unit living setup without the time and cost of new approvals. The open-concept kitchen and dining area includes a convenient walk-in pantry, double-door storage closet, functional cabinetry, and granite countertops. The bright and cozy living room features a wall of windows with California shutters and updated flooring, creating a welcoming space for relaxation or entertaining. A separate entrance to the finished basement with a 3-piece bath provides an excellent potential rental or in-law suite opportunity. Recent updates include new flooring (making this home carpet free), an updated main floor bathroom, and fresh paint throughout. The high-efficiency gas furnace and central A/C, fully finished basement with pot lights, and upgraded sanitary main line (2024) are also new additions. Located just minutes from the expressway, schools, shopping, and public transit—this home truly offers comfort, convenience, and value. Immediate possession available!
