Welcome to 244 Main St in Balgonie. This 1056sqft 3 bed 2 bath home has been beautifully renovated where extensive structural, mechanical, and cosmetic upgrades have already been completed, offering peace of mind and exceptional value for years to come. This thoughtfully updated home features an open-concept main living area, creating a bright and inviting space perfect for everyday living and entertaining. The custom maple kitchen is a standout, featuring butcher-block countertops, custom cabinetry, and included appliances. The renovation extends far beyond the visible finishes. The basement was completely restored back to the original cindercrete walls and rebuilt with long-term durability in mind. Multiple steel support beams, additional support columns, upgraded drainage, and extensive insulation improvements provide a solid foundation rarely found in homes of this age. Major mechanical updates include a new 100-amp electrical service, updated wiring throughout, upgraded sewer and water lines, air conditioning, and an on-demand water heating system. New windows, doors, flooring, drywall, paint, fixtures, plumbing components, and LED lighting have transformed the home into a move-in-ready property. The fully finished basement offers additional living space with a warm and comfortable subfloor system, R24 insulated exterior walls, and thoughtful moisture-management features designed for long-term performance. Outside, you’ll find new siding and trim, updated grading, and an impressive 18’ x 24’ garage complete with a 60-amp subpanel. House Shingles are approximately 10 years old. If you’re looking for a home where the major work has already been done, 244 Main street delivers an exceptional combination of quality craftsmanship, modern updates, and lasting value. Located steps from the elementary school this home is ideal for a young family or first time buyer! Call a real estate professional for more information or to schedule a private viewing today!

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.
