The Details
First-time buyers will want to take a good look at this updated three-level townhouse in a quiet complex in South London. It has a lot going for it: plenty of space, modern design elements, an attractive price tag and a great location for anyone wanting to call the south end of the city home.
You enter on the lower floor, where you can access either through the front door or through a separate garage entryway. On this level you’ll find a small flex space, ideal for use as a small home office, hobby room or rec room, tucked away from the noise of the rest of the house.
Move up the stairs and you’ll find the living room with a large window overlooking the back patio area, providing a bath of natural light throughout the day. The room offers lots of layout options in terms of furniture and entertainment technology, and has ample space for the whole family. Just off the main living room is a dining area, tucked between the kitchen and the rest of the space, that has plenty of room for either a small table or a larger, more substantial one. Rounding out this main level is a combination bathroom and laundry room.
The kitchen is another big draw in this home. Serving up plenty of room for an eat-in approach or island addition, it features new appliances and Shaker-style cabinetry (and lots of it). The white solid-surface countertops and subway tile backslash provide a clean, modern and airy look.
Upstairs on the third level, you’ll find the home’s three bedrooms, all of which feature their own closets. There’s also a shared four-piece bathroom on this floor.
In addition, there’s all sorts of features packing value into this property. There’s a small private patio out back, giving you a bit of outdoor space to play with and enjoy. You also get a private driveway, as well as a one-car garage (plus additional parking through the condo complex). The home has a newer furnace and air-conditioning unit installed, and outdoor maintenance is covered by the affordable condo fees.
Whether you’re a first-time buyer or someone looking for a value-packed option, this charming townhouse has a lot to offer, all in a nice location ― you can walk to work at the hospital, for instance or, soon enough, take a quick BRT ride to downtown.
