Charming Leaside home rich in authentic character! A rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved and carefully updated 1 1/2 storey home full of character and warmth on an extra wide 37 ft lot with a private driveway! Step inside and be transported by the original gumwood doors, chair rails, wood trim, and even the window casings in the living & dining room - all lovingly maintained in their natural, unspoiled state. The lovely hardwood floors and functional wood-burning fireplace offer timeless appeal, complemented by exquisite leaded glass & stained glass windows and cut-glass doors that reflect the craftsmanship of a bygone era. However some updates were diligently executed like the upgraded windows for energy efficiency. This 1 1/2 storey home features 2 bdrms, 2 full bathrooms, an updated kitchen with newer cabinetry & appliances including a dishwasher. A renovated upper bathroom with classic white tiles and black inlay which provides authentic charm and updated convenience. Whether you're cozying up by the fire or admiring the fine woodwork, this home is a celebration of traditional charm with thoughtful updates where they count. Enjoy a well-maintained & highly functional layout. And with a little TLC in the basement, the recreation/family room in this finished basement could come to life and accommodate your family's needs. And there's lots of storage here + a big walk-in cedar closet. Located in highly desirable South Leaside, close to parks, shops and transit while offering top-tier public schools including Rolph Road Elementary, Bessborough Dr Elementary & MIddle School and Leaside High.
