Right on Garner Road, this place is all about the land. Nearly 3 acres of your own slice within Ancaster's urban boundary, with mature trees giving you privacy you won't find in a typical subdivision. The house itself is a 2-storey, 3-bedroom with 2 baths and about 2,021 square feet of living space. It's got that older farmhouse vibe with aluminum siding and hot water radiator heat, which means character, but also no central AC, so you'll want to bring in a window unit for the summer. Inside, the main floor has a flow that works: foyer, a den (could double as an office), a good-sized living room at 23 feet long, and a kitchen that opens to a dining room. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are roomy, with the primary at 12'1" x 19'9". There's one fireplace to cozy up next to. The unfinished full basement is a blank canvas for storage or future projects. Outside, that red carriage house is a standout, parking three vehicles and has a workshop, perfect for hobbies or extra gear. With parking for 6 total, you've got room for toys and visitors. Location's solid: under 2 km to Ancaster Senior Public School, about 3 km to Redeemer University, and a quick drive to Costco and the highway. Taxes are reasonable at $4,223 annually. Priced at $1,099,000, it's under the area median of ~$1.22M, giving you room to put in sweat equity. If you're after acreage and a bit of land stewardship near the city, this is it.
