This legal duplex bungalow has two completely separate units, each with its own kitchen, laundry, and hydro meter. With 2 bedrooms & a full bathroom on the main floor, along with 2 bedrooms & a full bathroom in the basement unit. 17 Broadmore Avenue offers rare flexibility for buyers looking to offset their mortgage, multigenerational families, or investors. Both units have been thoughtfully updated, with the lower level extensively renovated in 2022 to include a full kitchen with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and its own laundry, while the main-floor laundry was added the same year to provide true independence between the two living spaces. The major systems are already handled, with spray foam insulation completed in 2022, a new air conditioning unit in 2021, full exterior waterproofing in 2021, and a new waterline run from the city into the home in 2023, so the next owner inherits comfort and peace of mind rather than a project list. Set in the established Carlton/Bunting neighbourhood where most errands can be done on foot, the home sits minutes from Lester B. Pearson Park and the shops along Carlton Street, a true turn-key opportunity in one of St. Catharines' most convenient pockets.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fair Market Value
At $928/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.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In St. Catharines'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 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.
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 St. Catharines. Good resale value as demand remains consistent.
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 $2,708 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
