Cross Streets: Metcalfe St E and Arthur St. ** Directions: Head east on Metcalfe Street from Head Street, then turn left onto Arthur Street. Continue to the fourth home on the left. 26 Arthur Street, nestled in a well-established Strathroy neighbourhood just walking distance to all local amenities. Boasting a wide 99' x 155' lot, this expansive property presents a great canvas for retirees or downsizers, investors, and builders alike. Step outside into a gardener's paradise, a fully fenced, private yard featuring mature trees and multiple sheds, making it a hobbyist's dream. Whether you are looking to enjoy this vast outdoor sanctuary, envisioning a substantial custom addition to suit your evolving needs, or exploring the possibility of subdividing into multiple lots (subject to municipal approvals, buyer to verify), the sheer scale of this land provides incredible flexibility. The property currently features a charming detached bungalow originally built in 1920. Offering convenient one-level living, it is the perfect starter or retiree home. The functional layout currently includes one bedroom and a full four-piece bathroom, but offers plenty of room to grow, easily reconfigure to add a second bedroom inside, or build on. It provides a solid foundation to live in or lease while you finalize your vision, and comes thoughtfully equipped with a fridge, stove, microwave, dishwasher, washer, and dryer. You will find excellent peace of mind in the home's practical updates, including upgraded insulation and plumbing throughout, an unfinished partial basement for utility and storage, a durable metal roof, and recent HVAC upgrades featuring forced-air gas heating (2023) and a mini-split AC (2023). A private double driveway provides parking for 6-8 vehicles. Situated just off Metcalfe Street East, fully serviced by municipal water, sewers, hydro, and natural gas, and boasting the added bonus of low property taxes, this property combines everyday convenience with exceptional long-term land value.
