Inside, original oak hardwoods, tall baseboards, plaster cove ceilings, and rich woodwork speak to the home's 1919 heritage, while modern upgrades deliver everyday ease. The spacious foyer opens to large principal rooms, dedicated sitting & music rooms, and a sun-filled kitchen, fully renovated in 2021 with quartz counters, a gas range, and seamless walkout to the backyard deck. 3 generous second-floor bedrooms include a bright primary suite with ensuite bath & direct access to a private 300 sq. ft. deck overlooking treetops-your own elevated retreat. A newly renovated main bath (2022) completes the level, while the versatile third-floor loft offers endless possibilities as a studio, office, or guest suite, enhanced by newer windows on all 3 exposures. The finished lower level adds valuable living space with a bedroom, 3-piece bath, rec room, laundry, and workshop. Mechanical updates include modernized electrical & plumbing, a high-efficiency boiler, spray-foamed basement, and newer radiators upstairs. Outdoors, the property is a hidden sanctuary: a fully enclosed, private garden with mature trees, specimen plantings (including multiple Japanese Maples, Magnolia, & rare Pride of India), and a tranquil pond. Multiple porches and decks capture every angle of light and season. A powered double garage plus parking for up to four vehicles, ensures convenience. This is more than a home-it's a lifestyle.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $478/sqft, this is priced below the area average. This could represent genuine value, but let's investigate why. In my experience, underpriced homes often have deferred maintenance, unfavourable layouts, or motivated sellers. I'll help you determine which it is.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Hamilton's current market, desirable homes often receive multiple offers within 5-7 days. If you're seriously interested, I recommend booking a showing immediately. However, never let urgency override due diligence - we'll still do proper inspections.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Hamilton are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Excellent Flexibility
With 5 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Hamilton.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 3 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Hamilton properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $4,979 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
