Where you live shapes how your days unfold, and in this end-unit condo townhome, that experience feels just a little more private, a little more open, and easy to settle into right from the start. As you step inside, a welcoming foyer with a double closet introduces a layout that flows naturally from one space to the next. The kitchen, updated in 2015, is bright and thoughtfully designed with barstool seating and lazy Susans in both corner cupboards. From there, the dining and living area come together in a comfortable setting, with sliding doors that lead to the fenced backyard. This outdoor space features a large deck for relaxing or hosting, along with a gate that connects to the shared green space beyond, offering a low-maintenance extension of your home. A convenient 2-piece bath completes the main floor. Upstairs, the second level boasts a generous primary bedroom with a large double closet and windows that bring in natural light throughout the day. Two additional bedrooms, each with their own double closet, provide flexibility for family, guests, or a home office. A bright 4-piece bathroom ties the level together. Moving downstairs, the unfinished basement adds another layer of opportunity. With laundry, a workshop area, a rough-in for a future bathroom, and ample room to expand, it is a space that can easily adapt over time, whether for storage or something more personalized. Beyond the home itself, the community brings everything together. Surrounded by plazas, grocery stores, restaurants, schools, and just minutes to Berkley Park and highway access, daily errands and weekend plans are always within reach. Condo fees further simplify living by covering water bills, visitor parking, one assigned parking space, exterior maintenance, lawn care and snow removal. With space to grow and a community that supports it, this is a home that is ready for whatever comes next.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $390/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.
Negotiation Opportunity
At 64 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.
Condo Considerations
For condos, I always review the status certificate thoroughly. Key things I look for: reserve fund health (should be well-funded), any upcoming special assessments, rules that might affect your lifestyle (pets, rentals, renovations), and the corporation's financial statements. We'll want to verify the monthly fees and what they include.
Starter Home Potential
3 bedrooms works well for couples planning families or small families with one child. Consider whether you might outgrow the space in 5-7 years. If so, factor in potential moving costs when making your decision. Alternatively, some buyers convert a bedroom to an office and make it work long-term.
Let's See It Together
Photos only tell part of the story. During our showing, I'll point out things the camera doesn't capture: neighbourhood feel, natural light quality, traffic noise, and overall condition. I'll also share what comparable homes have sold for and help you craft a winning strategy if you decide to move forward.
