Situated on a desirable corner lot with exceptional separation from neighbouring homes, this private urban sanctuary offers a rare sense of space, privacy, and connection to nature. Thoughtfully updated and beautifully maintained, this exceptional family home combines timeless character with everyday comfort. Offering four bedrooms on the upper level, multiple living spaces, and an attached double garage, it provides the flexibility today's families are looking for. The main floor features a formal living room, dining room, and comfortable family room, creating natural spaces for entertaining and daily life. A premium Jøtul wood-insert fireplace warms the living room, while a gas fireplace adds comfort to the family room. A spacious entryway, wide staircase, main-floor laundry, and powder room enhance convenience and functionality. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated to open views toward the backyard, creating a brighter space filled with natural light and greenery. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms provide room for family and guests. The primary suite features a Juliet balcony and a ensuite with steam shower. Both upper-level bathrooms include in-floor heating. The fully developed basement expands the living space with a large recreation area centered around a wood-burning fireplace, plus a utility room and substantial storage. Significant improvements include updated stucco, enlarged windows, modern pot lighting, and updates to the kitchen and bathrooms. Outside, the property truly shines. Over many years, the landscape has evolved into a private garden retreat filled with mature trees, shrubs, and perennial plantings that attract birds and pollinators while providing beauty and privacy. The gardens feature mature apple, cherry, and plum trees, along with established raspberry bushes that provide generous seasonal harvests. A gated side yard offers flexibility for RV or trailer parking while currently serving as additional lands caped space. Ideally located within walking distance of the LRT, grocery stores, the Italian Centre Shop, Willow Park School, Southcentre Mall, and Trico Centre for Family Wellness, this home offers exceptional convenience while maintaining a peaceful residential setting. Rarely do homes offer four upper-level bedrooms, three fireplaces, an attached double garage, mature landscaping, seasonal fruit harvests, RV parking flexibility, and walkable amenities in one complete package. A truly special opportunity in an established community. (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).
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.
