Cross Streets: Simcoe and Rossland. ** Directions: East on Rossland from Simcoe. South on Masson. Welcome to 477 Masson Street, a thoughtfully updated character home on one of Oshawa's most iconic and sought-after streets. Homes on Masson rarely come to market, and for good reason. This isn't just another address-it's a neighbourhood where front porches are still gathering places, neighbours stop to chat during evening walks, children look forward to annual Easter egg hunts and Halloween festivities, and community is part of everyday life. Rich in history as part of the McLaughlin estate neighbourhood, Masson Street has earned its reputation as one of Oshawa's most desirable places to call home. Built in 1922, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. Original millwork, elegant crown moulding, a welcoming staircase, and a cozy fireplace preserve the home's charm, while new quartz kitchen countertops (2026), fresh paint throughout (2026), and a beautifully renovated upper-level bathroom (June 2026) provide a fresh, contemporary feel. The bright kitchen overlooks a sun-filled dining area beneath a skylight, creating an inviting space for everyday living and entertaining. The partially finished basement adds valuable flexibility, offering the ideal space for a home office, gym, playroom, or creative studio. Outside, enjoy one of the home's standout features-a fully covered, waterproof outdoor living area perfect for entertaining or relaxing in every season. Beyond, the deep 40 x 144-foot lot offers mature trees, landscaped gardens, generous green space, and a detached garage. You're also within walking distance of the Oshawa Golf Club, Lakeridge Health Oshawa Hospital, parks, schools, restaurants, and everyday amenities. Combining character, thoughtful updates, an exceptional lot, and one of Oshawa's most admired addresses, 477 Masson Street offers something increasingly difficult to find: a home with timeless appeal in a neighbourhood where people don't just live-they truly belong.
