Key Characteristics & Appeal
The primary appeal of this property lies in its combination of a character home footprint and a generous, above-average land parcel.

This offers significant outdoor space and potential not commonly found on newer lots. The renovated basement adds modern, functional space to the historic structure.
It would best suit a buyer who values the established charm and mature streetscapes of Glenelm and sees more value in land size than in a recently built home.

It’s a practical choice for those wanting room for gardens, play, or future additions, without being far from the city's average price point.
Frequently Asked Questions

2. What does "one-and-three-quarter storey" mean?
This is a common architectural style for homes of this era. It typically means the second floor has full-height ceilings at the center, with sloped ceilings under the roofline on the sides, often creating cozy bedrooms with character.
3. How does the lot size compare practically?
At 8,637 sqft, the lot is significantly larger than the Glenelm average (~3,848 sqft). This translates to a much more substantial backyard, providing privacy, space for recreation, and room for potential projects like a shed, large garden, or deck.
4. The home is older than most in the city. What should I consider?
