About This Property

Stunning century home in the heart of St. Clair. Built in 1911 & thoughtfully updated throughout the years, it's the kind of home that feels warm and substantial - where original craftsmanship & modern function coexist perfectly. The curb appeal speaks for itself: oversized front porch (fully restored in 2023) framed by original detailing that gives the home its unmistakable presence. Inside, clear sight lines through the airy & bright home greet you; old-world charm remains w/ original trim, banister, hardwood flooring w/ inlay detail, and soaring ceilings. Spacious eat-in kitchen opens to the separate dining room & features breakfast bar seating, pot lights, pendant lighting, ample storage, and high-end appliances including Blue Star gas stove & Sakura hood fan. Second level hosts 3 bedrooms & refreshed full washroom w/ clawfoot bath, while the finished loft level offers incredible bonus space for bedrooms, offices, studio, or playroom use. Basement includes rec room (currently home gym), 3piece bath, laundry, and more storage. Meaningful mechanical & infrastructure improvements throughout: furnace (2024), duct work inspected/cleaned (2024), A/C (2019), electrical upgraded to 200 amp w/ pony panel + EV charger in garage (2023), chimney removal (2024), floor restoration (2023), preventative remortaring (2021), and yearly eaves maintenance/repairs. Detached garage with laneway parking. Contractors have confirmed straightforward potential for future attic bathroom addition using existing plumbing stack. Fully fenced yard, mature tree-lined streets, and a neighbourhood people specifically wait for (bonus of being inside the catchment for Adelaide Hoodless!). Steps to Gage Park, transit, and amenities. Character homes are easy to find - ones this well cared for are not.
