Two bedrooms and a 4-piece bath round out the main level. The basement's partly finished - good for storage or you could finish it later. The fully fenced backyard is a real plus: mature cedar hedges, interlock patio, and a shed. You're 400m from Lester B. Pearson Catholic High School, 700m from Earl Armstrong Arena, and about 1.4km to Moxie's for dinner. Listed at $499,000, which is above the area's median sold price of $217,450 (last 30 days), but it's got solid bones and privacy. No garage, but there's 4 parking spots. Central air and forced air gas heat keep it comfy. Taxes are $3,973 a year. If you're looking for a single-level with a great yard and school nearby, this could be it.
