228 King Edward Ave

Welcome to this solid brick bungalow that has been well loved and well used. While there will be a renovation needed, some big ticket items are already done such as furnace, air conditioner and the single drive turned into a double wide near the street, among others. A very nice upgrade from the single wide driveway to a double, super handy for those with more than one car. This will also be a perfect home for someone to build some sweat equity. Pulling up the first thing you will notice is the curb appeal and how the house sits elevated from the street on a nice piece of property, 60 x 125 feet with mature trees giving good privacy. A large covered concrete front porch is a great place to relax and watch the world go by or to a enjoy a storm or a book. Heading around to the backyard, an older but solid storage shed is tucked neatly in the corner of the yard. The backyard has a bunch of fruit trees including two kinds of pear, plum and high producing quality grape vines too. There are a couple of spots that have been used for vegetable and herb gardens and lots of space in this large backyard. The shed could use a coat of paint but that's it, a nice solid structure! Heading back to the front door, as you step in you will see the original hardwood floors in pretty good condition in most spots and a large living room. As with most three-bedroom bungalows, the bedrooms are at the other end of the house and are decent size. Once downstairs the bones of the home are solid with a great workshop area that every man would love. The basement was beginning to get a renovation which is why the walls have been stripped and the flooring too. Contractors will love this as it saves time and money and everything is exposed. Lots of storage in the utility room as well and a large laundry room is laid out well. The house is very close to the 401 highway as well. Bring your tools and your imagination. Easy to show, vacant - see offer remarks. (id:22211)
