This English Cottage-style home is like something out of a storybook. Enjoy the real plaster walls with cove ceilings and beautiful hardwood floors throughout. The enclosed front porch leads into a formal living room featuring a fireplace and stairs to the upper level. The main floor also includes a dining area nicely separating the spacious kitchen that provides ample storage and great counter space. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, many closets, and an updated full bath. The basement is partially finished offering extended living space and storage. The exterior is brick complemented by the gem of a fenced in backyard, nestled by mature trees and a large deck perfect for entertaining or lounging in the sun. This lovely home is located in the desirable Westnedge Hill neighborhood and it's within walking distance to Parkwood-Upjohn Elementary. Furnace and water heater were replaced in 2019 and AC in 2021. All offers to be submitted by Tuesday at 5:00pm.
