About This Property

Detached brick home with original features that are a rare find in houses being built today. Set on a large lot with mature trees and established landscaping. This two-storey, 3-bedroom home combines a comfortable layout with the warmth and character of an older home. The main floor has parquet flooring through the living, dining room & familyroom. The living room flows naturally into the dining area and the kitchen sits at the centre of the home, connecting the main living spaces and making it a natural gathering point. At the back of the home, the family room offers a more relaxed space to unwind, with a gas stove, exposed brick wall, and access to the deck and side yard. A separate workshop/storage area provides useful space for projects, hobbies, tools, or seasonal items. Upstairs are three bedrooms, all with parquet flooring, solid wood doors, and closet space, a welcome feature in an older home. The 4-piece bathroom has a board-and-batten ceiling that adds another touch of original character. Outside, the property has mature trees and landscaping, creating a peacful setting with space for gardening, outdoor gatherings, or simply relax and enjoying the yard. The double-wide interlock driveway provides plenty of parking. This is a well-kept older home with original character, a practical layout, and a central location within walking distance of everything Carleton Placae has to offer. The hospital, elementary school, and daycare are just a block away, while shops, restaurants, parks, and walking trails along the Mississippi River are all close by. A location that makes it easy to enjoy the community and leave the car at home.
