18 Clare Avenue, Port Colborne

Welcome to this charming brick 1.5-storey home in the heart of Port Colborne, filled with warmth, character, and thoughtful updates, with a classic brick exterior, black iron front railing and decorative mailbox that add curb appeal. Step inside to find hardwood flooring flowing throughout the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas, where large windows and a cozy wood-burning fireplace create a bright and inviting atmosphere, accented by comfortable seating, a neutral area rug and a wall-mounted TV in the adjoining lounge. The kitchen features wood cabinetry along with a stainless steel fridge and stove, offering both style and functionality — highlighted by gray-painted lower cabinets, a glass-front display cabinet, a practical farmhouse-style sink area and a tiled backsplash beneath the window. The main floor hosts two comfortable bedrooms and a 4-piece bathroom; the bedrooms showcase hardwood floors, classic trim and plentiful natural light. The upper level provides a third bedroom with its own 2-piece bath — a cozy space with sloped ceilings and a relaxed sitting/rec area. A full, unfinished basement with excellent ceiling height presents the opportunity to expand your living space to suit your needs. Enjoy mornings in the rear 3-season sunroom that overlooks the private backyard, complete with a pergola-covered seating area with vine-covered beams and string lights, a gravel seating/firepit area, mature trees, manicured lawn, and beautiful landscaping with planted beds and potted ferns. The detached single-car garage has been transformed into a versatile summer office and recreation area — inside you’ll find a comfortable lounge setup with sofa/daybed, TV, coffee table and area rug, adding even more usable space. Recent updates provide peace of mind, including a steel roof (2019) on both the house and garage, along with windows replaced just 34 years ago. Tucked away in a quiet, desirable neighbourhood, this home is only a short walk to Lake Erie and close to all amenities. A perfect blend of character, comfort, and convenience — this property is ready to welcome its next owner. (id:1945)
