226 9th AVENUE NE Some locations never go out of style, and this is one of them. With Elmwood Park as your neighbour, every season brings a different view, from lush green summers and colourful autumn leaves to a fresh blanket of snow in the winter. It's the kind of setting you'll appreciate long after the excitement of moving day has passed. Welcome to 266 - 9th Ave. NE, a beautifully updated 1, 028 sq.ft. bungalow, where the location is every bit as impressive as the home itself. This 1954-built home has been thoughtfully refreshed while maintaining a practical, family-friendly layout. A welcoming front entry leads into the spacious kitchen and dining area before flowing into the bright living room, where rich maple hardwood floors and large windows make the park the focal point. Down the hall are three comfortable bedrooms, a beautifully renovated 4-piece bathroom, and the convenience of a main-floor laundry room. The partially finished basement is ready for your finishing touches, already featuring a newly completed 3-piece bathroom and space planned for two additional bedrooms, giving you flexibility for a growing family, guests, or a home office. The updates continue outside and behind the walls. In 2006, the home received new vinyl siding with added exterior insulation, PVC windows throughout, a new electrical mast, and upgraded 100-amp service. The mid-efficiency furnace was installed in 2002, while the shingles were replaced in 2017. Over the past two years, fresh paint, engineered flooring and lino, updated lighting, new switches and faceplates, refreshed kitchen hardware, and countless finishing details have transformed the interior into a home that's truly move-in ready. When you combine a sought-after park-side location with this extensive list of improvements, you end up with a home that's ready to be enjoyed from the moment you arrive. (id:203)
