About this property
In the quiet Donevan neighbourhood of Oshawa, a modest but cleverly designed duplex stands as a quietly compelling example of suburban versatility. The two unit property, freshly updated, offers a rare combination of owner occupied comfort and income generating potential in a location where convenience and community intersect. On the main floor, a bright three bedroom residence has just received brand new flooring throughout along with a crisp, fresh paint job, lending a clean, contemporary feel to its practical layout. The spacious primary bedroom overlooks the front yard, while the two additional bedrooms face the rear, bathed in softer a southern exposure. With tile in the kitchen and a logical flow that suits both family life and low maintenance living, the upper unit feels move in ready and thoughtfully arranged. Below, a fully self-contained two bedroom suite awaits with its own private entrance, allowing for seamless rental income with minimal interference. Each level boasts its own individual laundry room and the basement bedrooms are positioned on opposite wings, ensuring maximum privacy for tenants or multigenerational families. The lower level features durable laminate flooring and porcelain tile, creating clean, functional spaces that appeal to a wide range of occupants. Outside, the extra wide driveway easily accommodates two vehicles on each side, a practical luxury. A generous backyard provides additional breathing room for relaxation, play, or entertaining. The home sits minutes from grocery stores, schools, parks, restaurants, major transit links including the GO Station, and the 401 highway. A nearby golf course adds a touch of local leisure. For investors seeking steady returns or homeowners who value flexibility the option to live in one unit while renting the other this duplex represents a pragmatic and well considered opportunity in a market that continues to reward thoughtful, income producing properties.
