Cross Streets: Talbot street and Kains St. ** Directions: follow Wellington Road as it turns into Talbot Street, make a left turn onto Scott Street, and then turn left onto Horton Street. Built in 1918, this character-filled legal duplex offers a rare opportunity for investors, renovators, or buyers looking to restore a historic property to its full potential. Rich with original craftsmanship, the home retains many of its period details, including original doors, door frames, crown mouldings, and decorative carved woodwork. Portions of the original wood trim have already been stripped back to their natural beauty, showcasing the home's timeless character. Significant mechanical and infrastructure upgrades have already been completed, including a full HVAC system, a newer heat pump, upgraded copper wiring throughout with all knob-and-tube wiring disconnected, and a water purification system complete with a water softener. The property is structurally sound and provides an excellent foundation for further improvements, with interior cosmetic updates and drywall work remaining to bring the home to its full potential. Currently configured as a legal duplex with separate hydro meters serving the upper and main floor units, the layout remains highly versatile. The units are separated only by a closed interior door, with no permanent walls installed, making conversion back to a spacious single-family residence both practical and straightforward. Situated on a generous lot and complemented by a detached three-car garage, this property offers exceptional flexibility for homeowners, investors, hobbyists, or those in need of additional storage and workspace. The property is being sold in "as is, where is" condition with no representations, warranties, or guarantees made by the Seller. (id:27476)
