Welcome to 1243 Main Street in Melville, SK — a home where pride of ownership is impossible to miss. Lovingly cared for by the original owner and continued with the same attention to detail by the current owner, the record keeping and update history here are truly impressive, including the original blueprints. Offering 952 sq ft plus a partially finished basement, this well-kept bungalow features 3 bedrooms on the main floor, a bright and comfortable living room, updated 3-piece bathroom complete with a safety bath, and an eat-in kitchen renovated in 2020 that brings a fresh modern feel to the home. Recent updates include a new dishwasher in 2026, a natural gas water heater in 2024, a high-efficiency natural gas furnace in 2013, central air conditioning in 2013 and shingles in 2012. This is only a glimpse into the extensive care this home has received over the years. Detailed records have been lovingly maintained from the day the home was first ready for occupancy right trough to the most recent updates. Outside, the care continues with a beautifully maintained 70 x 130 foot lot featuring garden space, deck, patio area, mature yard and not one but two driveways. The garage and second driveway were added in 2006, while rubber concrete was installed in 2016 on the other driveway, the south sidewalk and the back patio area. The basement offers a fourth bedroom, loads of storage and open space ready for future development ideas, whether you need a family room, hobby space or workshop. And the location? Tough to beat. Just one block from the Regional Park, St. Henry’s Senior School, swimming pool, batting cages and recreation areas, with St. Henry’s Junior School and Melville Comprehensive School only a short walk further. Groceries, coffee shops and restaurants are also conveniently nearby, making this a home that truly combines comfort, convenience and long-term care. (id:65958)

Comparable sales
Ask for 3–5 recent solds within ~1 km and the same beds/baths so the list price has context.
Property condition
Roof age, furnace age, hot-water tank age, electrical panel size, windows. Cosmetic vs structural.
Zoning
Confirm zoning matches your intent (single-family vs duplex vs secondary suite vs commercial).
Suite legality / potential
If suited or being marketed as suited: confirm permits, separate entrance, ceiling height, egress windows.
Monthly carrying cost
Mortgage + property tax + insurance + condo fee (if any) + utilities. Compare to your max budget.
Property taxes
Confirm the annual tax amount on the current assessment — and whether a reassessment is pending.
Insurance estimate
Get a same-day quote. Older homes, knob-and-tube wiring, polybutylene plumbing, flood plains all change the number.
Commute
Drive it (or transit it) at the actual time of day you'd commute. Map ETA lies during peak hours.
Deposit and financing conditions
Deposit size, financing condition window, condition removal date, possession date — all negotiable.
Inspection considerations
Budget for a home inspector ($500–700) and any specialty inspections (sewer scope, mould, asbestos for pre-1990 builds).
Pick a down payment and tap any underlined number to edit. Total updates live. Confirm with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
Monthly carrying costs (shared)
Approximation only. CMHC default insurance is included when down payment is under 20%. Property tax and condo fees come from MLS when listed and may not reflect the current billing year. Accelerated bi-weekly frequency reduces total interest paid vs. monthly — confirm with a broker. Suite rental income depends on permits, market rent, and vacancy. Always validate with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
