Description

Attention contractors, rehabbers or homeowners: here's a great opportunity to bring this 2 story house back to life and be the charming home it can be. Located in a well desired neighbourhood in Uptown Waterloo, close to many amenities such as Belmont Village, shopping, restaurants, and the LRT. It's also close to schools, the Waterloo Regional Hospital, Waterloo Park as well as the Iron Horse walking/biking trail. The bones of the house are pretty good with the roof, furnace and AC all in good shape and relatively newer. The rest is a job of imagination waiting for you to create a lovely home. Some newer plumbing and wiring has already been completed, but needs to be continued. Upstairs there's 3 nice size bedrooms and a bathroom, and even a loft/attic that could be converted to living space. Main floor again has good sized areas for a living room, dining room and a kitchen (no appliances or cupboards) as well as a cozy back and front porch. The hallway, or entry, is spacious and full of character with the wood railings. If you've got the imagination and desire this is an opportunity.
