Description & details

Here's one for the buyers who can see the potential as this one is loaded with it! This three-bedroom bungalow has plenty of retro personality, a great footprint, and an opportunity to create something truly special. Tucked away on a quiet dead-end street ending at popular Breithaupt Park, the setting is a standout - peaceful, private, and surrounded by a well-established Kitchener neighbourhood! The backyard offers great privacy and room to enjoy the outdoors, while the large detached double garage is an incredible bonus, and is topped with a durable metal roof. Inside, the home is largely original, with some seriously fun throwback touches along the way. It's ready for a new vision and a fresh chapter, but with a location like this, a solid bungalow layout, a beautiful lot, and that fantastic garage, the ingredients are already here. Bring your ideas and turn this character-filled original into the shining star it deserves to be.

The data only goes so far — condition, light and layout are worth seeing in person, with a home inspection, before you commit.
