This 1,604 square foot bungalow from 1940 packs a lot into its footprint. You've got 4 bedrooms total, with 2 up and a full 2-bedroom in-law suite in the finished basement. That lower level has its own kitchen, rec room, and 4pc bath, so it works great for extended family or rental income. Upstairs, the layout is simple: a living room, an eat-in kitchen that's 16'1" wide, two bedrooms (one's a bit tight at 8' x 8'6"), and a full bath with laundry. Central air and natural gas heat keep things comfortable year-round. The 50' frontage sits on what feels like an oversized lot, and there's a single attached garage plus space for 4 cars total. Taxes run about $3,400 annually. Location-wise, you're 0.3 km from North Park Collegiate and just minutes to Highway 403. Within a short drive, you'll find the Wayne Gretzky Sports Centre, shopping, and a bunch of restaurants. It's priced at $509,900, below the nearby median of $599,900, and the listing score of 89 suggests good value. The exterior is concrete, giving it solid bones but likely needing some cosmetic updates. With an attached garage and a legal-ish suite, this makes sense for first-timers or investors.
