Energy-efficient solar panels provide rebates, while the rare attached garage, updated driveway, legal laneway parking pad, and additional backyard parking for the secondary suite add unmatched convenience in a downtown locale. With landscaped curb appeal, an extra-wide porch, and proximity to James St. North's vibrant cafes, Bayfront Park, the Art Gallery of Hamilton, Dundurn Castle, and Hess Village, this legal duplex is a rare opportunity combining comfort, income potential, and lifestyle in one.
