Located directly across from Henry of Pelham Family Estate Winery and steps from the Short Hills Conservation Area, 1510 Pelham Road is a detached bungalow configured as a 3-unit home on a nearly half-acre lot in west St. Catharines - with all three units offering vacant possession on closing! The main floor houses two side-by-side units. The 1-bedroom unit features nicely updated vinyl flooring, a stunning green kitchen with ceramic tile backsplash and wood countertops, and a beautiful wood-burning fireplace (not in use) with brick mantle in the living area. The 2-bedroom unit offers original hardwood flooring in both bedrooms and the hallway, a 4-piece bathroom, and a second bedroom with a walk-in closet. The basement unit is thoughtfully constructed, featuring a deep green kitchen with gold hardware and ceramic tile backsplash, vinyl flooring, pot lights, a wood fireplace (not in use) in the living room, three egress windows, and a beautifully finished 3-piece bathroom with a walk-in shower featuring dark green ceramic tile surround, pot lights, and a decorative mirror. Outside, the concrete in-ground pool is fully fenced and complemented by a deck and built-in gazebo - a natural space for outdoor entertaining. Updates: new oil furnace ('25), cistern pump ('25), sewage pump replaced ('22), and full foundation waterproofing completed approximately 12 years ago. Opportunities like this - vacant on closing, versatile, and directly across from a vineyard - don't come along often.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fair Market Value
At $818/sqft, this property is priced in line with current St. Catharines market conditions. The pricing suggests the seller has done their homework. We may have modest room for negotiation, typically 2-4% in today's market.
Negotiation Opportunity
At 59 days on site, this property has exceeded the typical selling timeline for St. Catharines. This creates leverage for buyers. The seller may be motivated by carrying costs, life circumstances, or previous deals falling through. I'd recommend a strategic offer below asking with terms that favour you.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in St. Catharines 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 St. Catharines.
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: St. Catharines properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $3,750 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
