1688 Richard Street

First time on the market, this one-owner, well-built large side-split sits on a rare double lot in the heart of Val Caron's desirable Carol Richard subdivision. The spacious property offers room to add a double or triple garage, hobby shop, or additional storage, and features mature pear and apple trees, a large vegetable and flower garden, and a 22' x 12' patio accessed from the family room. Inside, the home offers a generous layout with both a large living room and separate great room with wood-burning fireplace, an eat-in kitchen with adjoining dining area, and a convenient main-floor laundry and 2-piece bath. The upper level includes a roomy primary bedroom, three additional bedrooms, and a 4-piece bath, while the lower level boasts an oversized rec room, another 2-piece bath, plenty of storage, and a cold room. Lovingly maintained and updated by its original owner with newer windows and flooring, the home is heated by hot water baseboards and cooled with a ductless A/C unit (boiler furnace is a rental). A solid, spacious home on a double lot close to schools, shopping, and all the amenities the Valley has to offer.
