This 2–3 bedroom, 2 bath home brings together warmth, functionality, and a vibe that’s getting harder to find. Hardwood floors, original wood mouldings and doorways, cozy corners, and bright airy spaces enhance the lived-in charm that feels instantly comfortable. With all new windows throughout, the home also benefits from excellent airflow and a refreshing cross breeze. The upper level works beautifully as a private primary retreat with its own 3-piece bath and bonus flex space perfect for a reading loft, creative studio, or quiet place to unwind. On the main floor, the layout stays flexible with an extra room ideal for an office, guest space, or additional bedroom. Downstairs adds even more room to spread out, with a spacious rec room and bedroom area — great for families, hobbies, movie nights, or teenagers wanting their own space. Outside, the backyard feels like a hidden little garden retreat in the middle of town. Mature trees provide privacy and welcome shade from the summer sun, while blooming perennials, greenhouse space, and partial fencing add even more charm to the outdoor space. With efficient heating costs, a generator panel, propane stove for added comfort during power outages, and easy upkeep, this is the kind of home that just makes sense. Walk to cafés, groceries, the waterfront, and downtown amenities while still coming home to a space that feels relaxed and genuinely inviting.
