159 Montreal St

Welcome to a home from yesteryear. Built more than 120 years ago, this eclectic detached 3 bed home is walking distance to downtown and has a large, fully fenced back yard with multiple decks for plenty of outside living. Inside you will find 9 1/2 ft high ceilings on the main level, large windows and very generously sized rooms throughout. Many original features still remain in this home including hardwood flooring, lathe and plaster walls, the wooden bannister to the upper level and the centre hall plan design. Main floor has huge living room, large dining room and kitchen with loads of storage. Upstairs are three very large bedrooms, a cheery bathroom and storage that could easily be repurposed into a walk-in closet or renovated into the bathroom to create a unique shower. The lower level is unusual for a downtown home in that it is nearly full height and has a finished room and exterior door. Plenty of storage! A 3-season bathroom off the rear verandah needs a little work, but the following had already been done: roof (2022), insulation (2022), furnace, electrical and most windows (2014). The back yard has perennials and privacy. This home is for the unique buyer who will appreciate its character. (id:54626)
