The home is structurally sound, presenting the perfect canvas for your personalized renovation to transform it from its current retro style into a truly spectacular residence. The generous floor plan provides plenty of living space, including a large foyer, open-concept living and dining rooms, an eat-in kitchen, a family room, and a recreation room. Additionally, there is a main floor laundry area conveniently located off the kitchen.Each spacious bedroom features sliding doors that open onto a balcony, offering peaceful views of the surrounding property. The primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet and an ensuite bathroom for added comfort and privacy. The property boasts an oversized double garage, perfect for car enthusiasts, and a paved driveway. The basement includes a utility room and a workshop, providing ample space for projects and storage.
