Under the canopy of swaying elms, a warm terracotta facade peeks though the shimmering sunbeams. Birdsong and a quiet chorus of whispering leaves rustling above; the every day soundtrack of Buena Vista reliably awaits your arrival every time. Inside, a centre staircase anchors the main floor, opening the layout and allowing the perimeter windows to draw daylight into the home all day. Oak hardwood floors span throughout the main floor living areas staying true to the timeless character expected in a home like this. The kitchen has been updated with care: maple cabinetry, a herringbone marble backsplash, granite-look countertops, stainless appliances. Off the kitchen sits a dining nook with corner windows looking out into the fairytale yard on two sides. The living room is generous and calm, with the same oak floors, a quaint and thoughtfully situated reading nook, and windows framed by trees that filter the light into a cinematic backdrop. Upstairs, three bedrooms offer room to grow or room to work, with a step-in closet in the primary and an updated four-piece bath serving the floor. The lower level is fully finished with a fourth bedroom, three-piece bath, family room, laundry, and room for storage. Outside, the backyard deserves an honourable moment of its own. The deck off the back door sits underneath and amongst a prolific sea of green. Mature trees and perennials wind through it. A handsome oversized single garage stands at the back; fully insulated, boarded, wired with a 220-amp plug, and ready for whatever you need it to be; workshop, studio, garage. Enclosed in a lovely wood fence; ’tis the season for basking in the outdoors. One block to École Buena Vista School, a short walk to Buena Vista Park or, in the other direction, to the river. A brand new roof, and a full replacement of the old lead pipes to the home have been completed. This home truly brings its best; a central location, mature walkable neighbourhood, an updated fully functional interior. (id:27476)
