About this property
Century home charm meets a renovation opportunity on an impressive 0.378 acre parcel in Alvinston! Built circa 1890, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath home offers the character & spaciousness of a bygone era, with plenty of potential for a handy buyer ready to bring it back to its former glory. The home requires cosmetic updating, but many big ticket items have already been addressed. The asphalt driveway was updated within the past 2 years, metal roof replaced in 2022, most windows updated, forced air gas furnace & central air replaced in 2021, & owned water heater installed in 2017. The lovely brick exterior, covered front porch & mature landscaping provide an excellent starting point. Inside, the main floor features a spacious kitchen with pantry space, large living & dining areas, a 3 piece bathroom & rear mudroom with laundry. Two separate front entrances add flexibility, with one opening directly into the kitchen & the other into the foyer & staircase. The mudroom leads to a large rear deck & expansive yard, while patio doors from the living room provide another connection to the outdoors. Wiring remains from a previous hot tub. A detached garage/storage shed on the driveway provides space for yard equipment, snowmobiles, motorcycles & more. Upstairs are 3 generous bedrooms & a full bathroom. The third bedroom provides access to an upper level sunroom addition, complete with an updated wood deck & stairs leading to the yard. The dry lower basement houses utilities & storage. The lot is particularly interesting, offering approximately 87.97 ft of frontage on River St & 171.47 ft of depth, while extending 136.81 ft along the rear with access from Wallace St. The property extends behind the neighbouring home, creating possibilities for additional access, a second driveway or future development, subject to municipal approvals & buyer due diligence. A rare opportunity to own a substantial parcel with a historic home & explore its potential.
