Come for the location, stay for the updates and charm! This classic Vernon Bungalow sits proud with timeless architectural features, formal dining room with vintage built-ins, light-filled rooms and a detached bonus space with vaulted ceiling.
A sweet front porch and fresh exterior paint will catch your eye upon arrival. Entering into the living room, you’ll feel the love: with gleaming hardwood floors, classic woodwork and a charming wood-burning fireplace.
While this home retains much of its original character, the updated kitchen boasts updates including gorgeous quartz countertops, stylish hardware, tile backsplash and plenty of extra storage in the pantry. The kitchen flows into the formal dining room. It’s just perfect for big dinner parties and intimate dinners alike.
The layout of the home is ideal, with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom on the main level. The second floor offers a lovely third bedroom with wonderful natural light and room for a spacious home office.
Moving through the kitchen you’ll find your backyard oasis! This fully fenced sanctuary feels very private and is brimming with beauty. You’re going to love this converted garage! A clean and spacious room with raw wood beams, this could be an office, detached living space, home school room, yoga room… really, the possibilities are endless!
The full, unfinished basement with an exterior entrance is clean and ready for projects and lots of storage. Complete with newer 96% efficiency furnace! Plus a great shed in the backyard for bike storage.
This location is absolutely ideal! Situated on a quiet street, easy walking distance to Alberta Park, the Alberta Arts district and so many restaurants & shops on Killingsworth!
So much to love in this well-maintained and inviting classic Vernon Bungalow!
