What a great opportunity to own this solid built brick home, with a garage that is just steps from the entrance of the beautiful Italian Lake. Take a peaceful stroll along the mature tree lined streets just 3 short blocks to River Front Park. This 3 story home is separated as and was a multi- unit (2). Since the owner has lived in the home and has not had it rented in years, the city changed the zoning back and is currently a single family. The true history of this home lays in the letters that were delivered to the vintage built-in mail boxes in the quaint private foyer. All the heating, hot water, and electric was separated in both units, with hardwired smoke detectors. The property is separated by 3 electric panels (100 amp) that were updated in 2001 - (1) 1st floor, (1) for 2 & 3rd floor, and (1) common areas and garage . This home would be perfect for a private in-law quarters. Both the 1st and 2nd floors just had brand new Pergo/Laminate flooring installed in 4/2024. The 1st floor kitchen has access to the private, fully fenced back yard with Niagara Grapes vines. The 1st floor living space has 1 bedroom, a full bath, and there is plenty of room to expand in the spacious open and light, living and dining room area with plenty of closet/storage space. The heat is forced air gas for the 1st floor and the 2nd and 3rd floors are electric baseboard. The heat could be returned to forced air for the entire home, as all the vents are still present. The 2nd and 3rd floor living space has 2+ bedrooms, a kitchen with a convenient laundry hookup, and metal fire escape to the rear yard. The living room (off the kitchen could be a dining room). The 3rd floor needs some TLC, but is a very large room for large owners suite? could it be a family/living room? How about the additional room that could be a 3rd bedroom, office/den, or Zen room? The possibilities and creativity are endless. Seller is selling "as is" as a single family. The oversized 1 car garage (14.5w X 22d), has a new roof (21), painted inside and out, a new garage door and opener installed in 2023. What a perfect spot for your car/SUV/truck, e bike, motorcycle, with plenty of room for storage or work area. The Architectural Shingle roof on the house and garage were replaced in 2021 with a transferable limited lifetime warranty. The rubber roofs were coated by the same company in 2021 with documentation available. Want to forego driving to work or shopping? There is a public transportation stop right out front. Be sure to schedule your private showing!
