Downtown Welland's old bones are showing in a good way here. This 1908 brick and stucco 2.5-storey has 1,850 sq ft of space split into three separate living areas, each with its own kitchen. That's five bedrooms total (four on the middle floor, one up top), but the current setup works like two duplexes with a third-floor loft. You're a five-minute walk from the canal and Merritt Park, and the Seaway Mall is about 2.8 km away. The main floor has a big living room (13x26) with a dining room off it, plus a kitchen that opens to the back deck. The second floor has two kitchens, so you could easily rent out half while you live in the other. Up top, there's a bedroom, a full bath, and a living room with a kitchenette, making it a perfect in-law suite. All three floors have their own access points, which is great for privacy. The house needs some work, but it's structurally sound with a poured concrete foundation and a detached garage for two cars. Taxes last year were $2,871, and at $299,999, you're well below the $589K median around here. Just remember it's full of the owner's belongings right now, so give yourself time to imagine the potential. Sold comps in the last month went for over $800K, so there's real upside.
