Looking for the perfect family home? Then you have found it! Located in the B’S of Timberlea close to schools, bus routes, shopping and the parks and trails. This property is perfect for the first time homebuyer or the growing family as you come up the front walk you will notice the amazing curb appeal and that’s because the windows, roof and siding were new in 2017. The driveway and front steps were replaced in 2017 as well. The property had continued to have further renovations done to include the upstairs bathroom, kitchen floor, new blinds. New hot water tank was in stalled in 2024. New air conditioner in 2018 and new furnace in 2019. So all the big-ticket items have been taken care of.As you enter the home. You are greeted to by a large entryway there is room for the whole family and a over sized coat closet. To the left you have a flex room, which could be a bonus room, children’s playroom, office or exercise room. I would use it for a mom’s personal get away room…plants ,wine rack ,books, peaceful music… Up a few stairs and you have the open concept living room with wood-burning fireplace the perfect place to relax after a long day at work. The large kitchen with tons I mean tons of countertop and cupboard space and is the perfect place to entertain family and friends and host many birthdays and special occasions. On this level there are two bedrooms and a four-piece bath. The spacious master bedroom has a large closet with a two-piece washroom. And located on this level for your convenience is the is stackable washer and dryer. There are 2 separate entrances for the basement one from the side of the house and one from the garage. As you go downstairs you will notice the large rec room area and well-appointed wet bar with bar fridge and loads of cup boards to store all the snacks great for movie night. 3 dens which could possibly be bedrooms if you installed armoire as there is no closets the full fenced backyard is a perfect place for the kids and pets to roam. I love this unique floor plan. And you will too! they just do not make them like this anymore!! (id:65958)

10-item due-diligence checklist. We can pre-flight most of these for you on a CMA call.
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).
Rough ballpark only. Pick a down-payment option, then tap any underlined number below to plug in your real numbers — tax, condo fee, insurance, utilities. Total updates live. Confirm with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
Cost lines (tax, condo, insurance, utilities) are editable inline above. These two control the mortgage payment math.
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. Suite rental income depends on permits, market rent, and vacancy — confirm with a property manager. Always validate your scenario with a mortgage broker and your insurance provider before writing an offer.
