This all-brick raised bungalow sits in Northcrest on a deep 162.7-foot lot that widens to about 50 feet at the rear, backing directly onto green space. You're a 10-minute drive from downtown, with Adam Scott Collegiate 1.1 km away and the Riverview Park & Zoo just 2.3 km. The outside shows its 30+ years, but inside it's spotless and updated where it counts. The main floor has a bright living room with a modern media console, two good-sized bedrooms, and a full bath with a tub-shower combo. The kitchen is functional, though you'll likely want to swap the old appliances eventually. Head downstairs to find a finished rec room with wainscoting, a third bedroom, and a second bathroom-perfect for guests or a teen hangout. The backyard is the real sell: a huge, level lawn with a wooden fence, mature trees, and even a shed. There's a modern deck with a sectional sofa for summer BBQs, and the attached single-car garage has room for a car plus your tools. Priced at $499,998, it's just below the neighborhood median of $514,900, and with homes here selling in about 49 days, this one's a solid entry point for first-timers or anyone wanting a single-level with space. No central air, but forced air gas heat keeps things comfy.
