description: | Set in an idyllic Old City location, this well maintained up/down duplex beckons you with its classic century old charm tastefully contrasted with a farmhouse-like design on the main level. The big beautiful lot surrounds you with gardens, arbours, and even an old oak tree; a 613sf shop was built in 12 with alley access. Enjoy outdoor living, Old City-style with a front porch, rear patio, and the upper unit has a large wrap-around deck with some city and harbour views. The home boasts 3686 sf on 3 levels including a flowing main floor with basement. The main floor is amazing: step into the kitchen with its richly finished cabinetry, tiled floors, and over height post and beam ceilings; a spacious dining and living room captures farmhouse feel, all overlooking the arbour and gardens through large picture windows; the southern exposure emanates warmth and comfort. This level also features 2 bedrooms and den, and 5 piece main bathroom. The lower level has lots of storage, family room, 3rd bedroom, lots of storage and rear yard access. The upper floor has its own old-world funk with wood trimmed doors and closets, open wood cabinetry in kitchen, wood floors, and a sunny, bright feel. With 3 bedrooms, full living, dining and kitchen spaces, this is a very thoughtful plan. Step onto the wrap around deck and sip your morning coffee or evening glass of wine. The seller has added many extra features like built-in alcoves and shelves to add flavour and practical use; separate laundry and entries. The grounds are a gardeners dream with abundant vegetable, spice, flower, and other assorted plants and gardens. The shop is a bonus with over height door, alley access, built under permit. All measurements are approximate and should be verified if important. |
