The upper 2-bedroom suite features charming mid-century features like original hardwood floors, arched doorways, swirl-textured living room ceilings, and a built-in banquet bench in the dining room. Updates include some newer windows and a renovated 4-piece bathroom with a large tub with subway tile surround, hexagonal tile floors, and a floating vanity with a vessel sink. Two generous bedrooms each have large windows and closets. The spacious living room offers tons of natural light with plenty of room for an entire living room set.

A separate rear entrance leads downstairs to the shared laundry and storage area, as well as the entrance to the illegal 2-bedroom basement suite. Here, hardwood floors and multiple newer windows make for a bright space. The updated, open-concept kitchen features newer cabinets and a full appliance package, including a microwave and dishwasher. A large bedroom with an additional den/bedroom to the rear and a 3-piece bath round out this space.

The large rear yard features a huge deck, 2 storage sheds, and a single storage garage (no garage opener) with access from the front street. A gravel parking pad out front accommodates 2 vehicles, plus there is lots of street parking out front.

This is a great location in a desirable inner-city community. Located just a half block to the East of this property, the Capitol Hill Community Centre offers a preschool, community garden, loads of green space, a playground, a baseball diamond, plus a gathering place for community residents. Just one block to the West, Capitol Hill School (K-6) and St. Pius X Catholic French Immersion School (K-6) offers multiple options for schooling, with additional parks and playgrounds great for school-aged kids. Just 2 blocks North, Confederation Park provides vast outdoor park space for families and people of all ages to enjoy. 

Multiple bus stops are located within a 5-min walk from this location, plus it is just a 15-minute walk to the nearest LRT station and North Hill Mall. Quick access to 14 Street and 20 Avenue allows for easy commuting Downtown and getting around the city.

This is a great opportunity for an investment property with development potential!
