470 Cairnsmore St Classic character, thoughtful updates, and a private garden setting come together in this inviting character home in one of Duncan’s most walkable neighbourhoods. With 9’ ceilings, recently painted, and updated main floor windows, the home offers a warm sense of history while supporting the comfort of everyday living. The living room is anchored by a wood fireplace, creating a natural place to gather through the cooler months. The updated kitchen features quartz counters, offering a clean and practical space for preparing meals, hosting friends, or enjoying quiet mornings at home. Three bedrooms and an updated full bathroom complete the main level, making the layout flexible for families, guests, or those needing a home office. The lower level adds everyday convenience with laundry and plenty of storage, while outside, the backyard is a place to slow down and enjoy Vancouver Island living. The garden is very private, with a concrete patio, two cherry trees, one apple tree, and a large detached shed. It is easy to picture family gatherings here, warm afternoons outdoors, and the simple pleasure of having green space to enjoy at home. The neighbourhood is close-knit and friendly, with clear pride of ownership throughout. This is an area known for its heritage homes, and the location is one of Duncan’s most walkable, just a short walk to downtown, grocery shopping, the Saturday market, theatres, restaurants, and recreation facilities. With four daycares in the neighbourhood and quick access to transit, daily life feels connected and convenient. Practical features include a forced air gas furnace and a newer hot water tank. This is a home with character, comfort, and a setting that invites the next owners to create their own memories. Reach out any time to arrange your private viewing. (id:203)
