Description

THIS IS IT!!! Do you love mid-century design and urban gardening? Then this 1962 Mid Century Modern Contemporary, four-level split is for you! It is oozing with character yet balanced with ENDLESS NEW UPGRADES and situated in a BEAUTIFULLY LANDSCAPED suburban gardener’s SANCTUARY. The property is located on a QUIET STREET in the desirable and CENTRALLY LOCATED Glamorgan neighbourhood - in close proximity to countless parks, shopping, walkable commercial complexes, Mount Royal University, Currie Barracks and Grey Eagle Casino. The house features an OPEN FLOOR PLAN with dramatic wood clad post-and- beam VAULTED CEILINGS. It has an asymmetrical roof and a functional four-level split design with three SPACIOUS BEDROOMS and an office (or nursery). The current owners (one of whom is a heritage professional) have undertaken PLENTY FUNCTIONAL UPGRADES to the house including a new roof and rainwater system (2019), exterior painting (2021), new bathroom and living room windows (2018-19), upgraded electrical panel (2018), tankless water heater (2018) and several other appliance upgrades. There is also a newer high-efficient furnace. The interior has retained its mid-century aesthetic appeal with restored ¾” red oak flooring in bedrooms and new oak flooring to match in main floor and hallways, black slate tile (in 60s inspired ‘crazy tile’ design) in entryways (2018), new flooring in the basement, new mid century inspired lighting throughout, new drywall in living room and basement (2019), restored double-paned wooden casement windows, original and salvaged trim and doors with original hardware, and many playful original details in the basement room including wooden post and beams with a real brick veneer wall. The upstairs bathroom was tastefully UPDATED in 2019 with new drywall, vanity, fixtures, tile and flooring; the bathtub was refinished in 2022. The downstairs bathroom and kitchen were beautifully RENOVATED in 2021 and feature a modern interpretation of 60s inspired design, with new tile, wide white quartz countertops and wood veneer cabinets with ample storage. The property is beautifully landscaped with an enclosed front yard with mature perennial FLOWER GARDEN and raised organic/biodynamic veggie garden (planted for a fall harvest), a cosy concrete paver patio (2019), newer walkway and paving on north side of house (last 5 years) as well as a new GARDEN SHED on the north side of the property (2020). The backyard has a new modern fence (2019) and was regraded with NEW GRASS in 2019. A MASSIVE EAST FACING DECK on top of the garage with unobstructed views for SUNRISES AND STARGAZING has a new roof and boards (2021), and modern railing (2022), PERFECT FOR ENTERTAINING large groups. There is a MASSIVE crawl space for storage, and HUGE DOUBLE CAR GARAGE WITH WORKBENCHES. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a MOVE-IN-READY little slice of MID CENTURY HEAVEN!
