Description

Exceptionally charming home in a great location. Nearly 1850 square feet of developed living space with a perfect blend of preserved vintage character together with extensive renovations…a truly special residence. The main level has a glassed-in front porch leading into a bright living room, spacious dining room and a newer kitchen with great storage and workspace, stainless appliances and granite counters. A 2-piece powder room and a rear sun porch-mud room complete the main. The upper level holds a generous primary bedroom with private balcony, 2nd bedroom, renovated 4-piece bath with laundry and storage and an open flex-office space with access to a 2nd balcony with sunny south exposure. The lower level can function as part of the house (adding a family room, 3rd bedroom and full bath) or as an illegal one-bedroom suite with separate side entry. All mechanical has been upgraded (new plumbing, electrical and heating), new solid-maple hardwood floors, 98% removal of lathe-and-plaster (new drywall and insulation on exterior walls), 80% new windows (20% vintage windows retained for their character) and new roof (see Supplements for list of Features and Upgrades). Spectacular south exposure garden has been lovingly tended for decades and includes cobble-stone paths, stone patios for seating and dining, a water feature, espaliered-trees (including fruit-bearing pear trees), carefully selected perennials and enjoys a wonderful canopy of old-growth trees. The original single garage is used as a studio-woodshop. Cliff Bungalow is a top inner-city neighbourhood, with a large collection of heritage homes, easy access to the Elbow River pathway system, top schools and to the endless amenities of the 4th Street Village and 17th Avenue. A must see! (id:39198)
