Property Description
Tucked into the heart of Maple Leaf, this classic 1919 home sits on a rare, fully fenced 9,304 sq ft level lot-a true throwback to a time when homes were built with space to live, gather, and grow. There's a warmth here you can feel. From the sweet front deck to the fruit trees and quiet patio, the home invites slow mornings, summer evenings, and a connection to both indoors and out that's increasingly hard to find. Inside, the layout offers flexibility for today and incredible potential for what's next. The main level features living, dining, and kitchen spaces alongside two bedrooms, a full bath, and a spacious rec room with wood stove. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a cozy reading area create a peaceful retreat, while the lower level-with half bath and a massive unfinished basement-opens the door to future expansion. The home is ready for updates, but the scale, layout, and lot size provide a rare opportunity to restore, reimagine, or expand over time. With alley access, off-street parking, and a garage, there's also potential for a DADU or second home, or maintain the existing space for enhanced outdoor living. Just blocks to parks, cafes, schools, and neighborhood favorites, with easy access to light rail and beyond-this is a home with history, heart, and meaningful upside.
