Cross Streets: Lawrence & London. ** Directions: King St to London Street South. ***Beautiful Craftsman-style home with an in-law suite!***The late 19th century Arts and Crafts movement arose to counter the soulless designs of the Industrial Revolution. What emerged was an architectural style championing authentic craftsmanship, natural materials, and practical, connected, open layouts. By 1929, when this charming 3+1 bedroom home was built, the remarkably progressive design of these homes was perfected. Arts and Craft principles are showcased at 266 London Street South, where a surprisingly spacious layout, original hardwood floors and excellent flow between the main living areas create a home that's well suited for gathering or enjoying a quiet evening at home. The addition of the family room on the main floor has become the heart of this home, with access to the rear yard that features a large, maintenance free deck, hot tub, and a spacious garage, perfect for a workshop, home gym or storage. Upstairs, you'll find 3 bedrooms and a renovated washroom. One of the home's most versatile features is the finished lower level, complete with its own separate entrance from the driveway. Featuring a full kitchen, a beautiful 4-pc bath, an additional bedroom, living room and laundry, this lower level is perfect for additional income, in-laws, convenient space for overnight guests, or simply an additional recreational area for the family. Updates include new AC (2026), dishwasher (2025), furnace (2018), owned water heater (2018), basement finish (2018), basement waterproofing (2017). Located in the desirable Delta West/Gage Park neighbourhood, this home is convenience and practicality, all wrapped up in the warm, inviting aesthetic that you've come to expect from homes built in this era.
