The Details
We’re in Westmount for this week’s listing, and it’s a home that will be perfect for buyers looking for a property with loads of upside potential. Sure, this four-bed, three-bath home on a quiet residential street may have a few dated interior design features, but the home itself has been very well-maintained, and has a laundry list of features and amenities that make this a terrific value opportunity.
That is pretty apparent right from the curbside view ― a beautiful mature front garden with steps snaking through the garden beds and leading to a long, covered front porch. Step inside and you’ll find hardwood flooring in the spacious foyer (and through much of the main level) and a grand curved staircase leading to the second level.
To your immediate left as you walk in is a sizeable living room with a set of French doors and a large bay window looking out over the porch. Towards the rear of the main level, there’s a formal dining room with hardwood flooring and elegant wainscotting found throughout many parts of the home.
The large kitchen features laminate countertops, hardwood flooring and plenty of cabinet space. There’s also an interior pass-through to the family room, tile backsplash, dishwasher, fridge and stove. For those who envision a more modern take on things (or who want to expand on the retro look and feel), the kitchen delivers a lot of real estate to play with, and features like a central island could easily be incorporated into the space.
The family room in the rear of the home leans a bit harder into the retro mood, with 1970s-esque wood panelling, recessed ceiling sections and a stone mantle around the fireplace More hardwood floor in here as well, giving the entire room a very warm, cozy vibe. There’s also a patio door that leads out to the backyard pool area.
Upstairs, the primary suite is spacious with its own balcony overlooking the backyard, plus its own ensuite bathroom with a double vanity, shower-tub combo and heated tile flooring. The second bedroom features a large walk-in closet, while the third and fourth bedrooms both have traditional closet space. All four bedrooms feature hardwood flooring, and there’s an additional upper-level bathroom with double vanity and a combo tub-shower.
The private, fenced-in backyard will be a major selling point for families. There’s a large wood deck attached to the home that will make for a great summer gathering space to enjoy the in-ground pool, plus the various garden beds around the backyard, with trees, plants and flowers.
