    What's special

    WELL-CARED FOR GEM! Run, don't walk, to see this adorable 3-bedroom Beaverdale bungalow before it's snatched up! This home has been lovingly cared for through the years, is freshly painted, and is move-in ready. The blend of traditional Beaverdale features like the charming entry, glass doorknobs, and updated fun wallpaper creates a retro vibe you'll fall in love with. The pristine main-floor bathroom offers ample storage, as do the two main-floor bedrooms, which also feature extra movable cabinets for your convenience. Venture upstairs to the spacious 3rd bedroom! The newer windows and higher ceilings (a rarity in this neighborhood bungalow!) create a bright and airy feel. With lots of extra storage, there's even room to add a bathroom in the future. This space would also make a lovely home office or playroom. Downstairs, whip up a meal in the quaint kitchen, then sit down to dinner while looking out into the spacious backyard. The beautifully landscaped backyard is in bloom! There is even a map to let you know what perennials you can expect to pop up later this summer if your thumb isn't very green. And don't forget the partially finished lower level, which was professionally waterproofed! Plenty of storage, room for a workshop, including a workbench that stays as well as a great washer and dryer and extra refrigerator! Don't miss out on this Beaverdale gem! It won't last long!
