A classic 1920s brick home with modern updates in the vibrant Stipley neighbourhood. This 4 bedroom, 2 bath home offers charming character features with updates where it matters most. Enjoy your morning coffee on the covered front porch. The welcoming living room leads to a formal dining room large enough to accommodate the whole family. Renovated kitchen (2023) with timeless white tile backsplash, butcher block counters, Blanco sink, and stainless steel appliances. Bright mudroom that can double as a pantry leads out to the fully fenced backyard with patio and raised garden beds. Upstairs offers 3 bedrooms and a beautifully updated (2019) 4 piece bath with solar tube, and black-and-white octagon and dot tile flooring, which is the perfect nod to the 1920s. Original hardwood floors, unpainted wood trim with high baseboards, plate rail, transom window, and glass door knobs remind you that they don't build them like this anymore. The recently finished basement (2025) adds valuable living space with a fourth bedroom, 2-piece bath, laundry room, ample storage, and a walk-up to the backyard. The basement was fully waterproofed by Omni (2020). Most windows replaced (2019-2025), flat roof (2025), and back eavestroughs (2019). Cheer on your team at Hamilton Stadium, shop and eat on Ottawa Street N, swim at Bernie Morelli Rec Centre, or go for a stroll at Gage Park. Also close to schools, grocery stores, The Centre on Barton, and public transit. Easy access to Downtown, the QEW and Red Hill Parkway.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $786/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.
Efficient Living
At 700 sqft, this is a more compact space. The upside: lower utility bills, less maintenance, and easier cleaning. Consider how you'll use the space - built-in storage, multi-functional furniture, and good organization become important. Great for singles, couples, or those who prefer a low-maintenance lifestyle.
Family-Friendly Layout
4 bedrooms hits the sweet spot for most families. You'll have room for 2-3 children plus a home office or guest room. This is the most sought-after configuration for families relocating to Hamilton. Good resale value as demand remains consistent.
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 $2,291 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
