Description
OPEN HOUSE 4/30 CANCELED. PLEASE CALL FOR A STATUS UPDATE. Welcome to your dream home! Fully detached, full of light and wide open spaces. This pristinely maintained two family house is the one you are waiting for. Use as is with an owner's duplex downstairs and 2/3 bedroom rental upstairs or take over the whole house and convert to an extra large one family. Dramatic 10 foot ceilings downstairs and 9 feet upstairs plus windows on all four sides give the house a breezy, open feel all throughout. At 21 feet wide and 46 long, there is truly room to spread out. The bamboo flooring throughout the house is an added bonus and adds warmth and functionality. The owner's duplex features a windowed eat-in kitchen leading out to the tranquil backyard oasis with your very Japanese Maple tree and flowering pear tree. Lots of sun and shade to play, barbecue and relax. Downstairs the primary bedroom is large and of course has multiple exposures. The living room is open and leads into the oversized dining room. All have windows of course and could be used as xtra bedrooms if needed. Downstairs, the fully finished basement is perfect as a guest quarters or nanny suite. Upstairs is an open and spacious two bedroom apartment that also could be used as a flexible 3 bedroom if the dining room was not needed. The sunny eat-in kitchen currently opens up to the formal dining area, overlooking the backyard with the flowering pear tree peering through the window. Easily convert to a magnificent one family just by the removal of the upstairs kitchen. See the alternate floor plan for this configuration. Located just over the dividing line of Windsor Terrace, this home is situated in one of the nicest blocks in Kensington.
