About This Property

The walk to Soper Park takes a few minutes, and the trees thicken as you get closer to it. Boulevard trees line the street. This is Galt East, where the roads were laid out wide and the mature canopy came in over decades. The house has been looked after. Freshly painted throughout. Hardwood runs through the living room, dining room and primary bedroom, and the kitchen was rebuilt by the previous owner, prior to 2022, along with the kitchen and bathroom tile. The 4-piece bath on the main floor has a tub and shower combination, and the vanity went in this month. Windows have been updated through most of the home, and the patio doors are newer as well. Downstairs holds 475 square feet of finished space: a recreation room, 2 bedrooms and a 3-piece washroom. The side entrance separates the main floor from the lower level, which leaves the door open to an in-law suite subject to City of Cambridge approvals. The lot carries the width homes were given when this one was built, more than the builders allow themselves today. The yard rises at the back against open space, so nothing looks in on you. The deck sits off the kitchen. Fully fenced, with a garden shed. The detached 2-car garage is a proper one, with newer insulated double doors, heated by a ceiling unit and a wood stove sold as-is. There is care in the mechanics too. Water arrives softened and filtered through a multi-stage reverse osmosis system. An HEPA unit keeps the air clean. A first house, or the house you land in after the big one sells or hold as an investment property. Most of what you leave home for is a 3 minute drive.
