Listing description
Some homes are renovated. Others are simply cared for exceptionally well. Owned by the same family since 1965, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath bungalow is a remarkable example of pride of ownership, with decades of meticulous care evident throughout.
The décor reflects its era, but the condition is exceptional-embrace the beautifully preserved retro character or thoughtfully update it over time. Major improvements include an owned furnace, central air and hot water tank, all replaced in 2023, plus a roof updated in 2015. The lower level offers impressive flexibility with unusually large windows providing abundant natural light, a separate walkout, generous living space and a recently updated bathroom with a large tiled roll-in shower.
Outside is where this property truly sets itself apart. The extraordinary 100' x 150' lot has been lovingly cultivated with established vegetable and herb gardens, raspberries, red and green grapes, four varieties of pear trees and a Red Delicious apple tree. An existing outbuilding once accommodated chickens and rabbits, adding to the appeal for gardeners and those dreaming of an urban homestead lifestyle.
Comprised of two whole lots on the registered plan of subdivision, the property's impressive size and configuration may offer intriguing future possibilities, subject to municipal approvals and buyer due diligence. With an attached garage, mature grounds and more than 60 years of careful stewardship, this is a property that would be difficult to recreate. Preserve its retro charm, make it your own and write the next chapter at 248 Vansickle Road.
