A true South Leaside classic, this wonderful 4-bdrm detached home beautifully captures the architectural character of Leaside's 1930/40s homes. From the moment you arrive, the arched stone entrance with its handsome keystone and voussoirs makes a lasting impression. Inside, you'll find lots of leaded glass windows and a spectacular leaded bay window in the living room, along with antique leaded glass doors that add warmth and timeless charm. The living room is anchored by a traditional wood-burning fireplace, perfect for cozy winter evenings, while the rear addition creates a generous sunken family room with a skylight for tons of natural light & a walk-out to the oversized deck that's hosted many family BBQs, evening cocktail hours and Saturday morning breakfasts. The kitchen was extended as part of the addition and overlooks the family room, with a breakfast area that is also multitasking as a home office. Upstairs, the fourth bdrm adds valuable family space over the attached garage, something rarely found in these classic Leaside homes. The lower level offers a recreation room with decorative fireplace, above-grade window and a 2-piece bath, with plenty of potential for those ready to add their own finishing touches the lower level could shine once more. Lovingly maintained and ready to move into, renovate or reimagine, who knows what treasures may be waiting beneath that broadloom? Ideally located in Prime South Leaside between McRae & Millwood, just a 6-minute walk to the Leaside Library and Trace Manes Park for sports, recreation and family fun. Steps to Bayview Ave's shops, services & restaurants, with the LRT close at your doorstep. Families will appreciate the Rolph Road Elementary School catchment as well as nearby Bessborough Drive Elementary & Middle School and St Anselm Catholic School. A rare opportunity to own a home with authentic South Leaside character, exceptional potential and a location that puts so much within easy reach.
