Description

OPEN HOUSE Sunday September 28th 2-4 PM! They say the magic thing about home is that it feels good to leave and even better to return. This home is the one that will always delight you upon your return from a long day. 397 15th Street is an incredible Edwardian home constructed during the golden age of Canadian home building. The exterior features many key elements of traditional Edwardian homes. The large rectangular building envelope made of solid double brick walls contains the famous foursquare layout. The symmetrical facade with tall sash windows underscored by thick stone sills are quintessentially golden age. Dormers burst through the roofline adding visual interest and creating a pleasant third floor space. Just inside the front door is the homes first statement piece, an incredible newel post in its original wood finish. There is so much original charm intact in the kitchen; while the cabinetry colours do follow the modern trend of white uppers over sage or green bases, they appear to be the original solid wood cabinets and are likely to outlast anything being installed in homes today. Throughout the rest of the home there is a great mix of updated and original finishes. The trim throughout is a clean agreeable white, however where the original finish peeks through it appears to be all oak; maintain the clean white aesthetic or bring back the stately original finish of these old-growth hardwood door casings and baseboards. Upstairs features 3 second-floor bedrooms, a 100-sqft mega-bathroom, and a huge finished third floor room. This versatile layout is useful as 4 bedrooms, or a mix of bedrooms and office or recreation. The third floor with dormers has potential as 2 future bedrooms. At next renovation consider the choice of glamourizing the mega-bathroom or divide it into two, establishing a hallway bathroom and a master bathroom for enhanced convenience. Well-constructed homes like this may last centuries, but they only last days on market, so don't wait!Show Description
