2221 Princess Street, Regina

Sunlight, character, and charm—welcome to your secret garden in the city. Welcome to 2221 Princess Street, where storybook charm meets modern comfort in the heart of Regina’s enchanting Cathedral Village. Here, the trees seem to whisper overhead, and the streets hum with the gentle rhythm of coffee shops, bookstores, and friendly waves from neighbours. This 1½-storey character home is a little piece of magic. Morning light spills through skylights in both bedrooms, waking the space slowly, like a Sunday. The kitchen—completely reimagined in 2021—features fresh cabinetry, sparkling appliances, a playful backsplash, and new lighting (an island/peninsula with seating and dark countertops creates an ideal casual dining spot and opens directly to the dining and living areas for effortless flow). That same year, new shingles were installed and nearly every window was replaced (keeping the dining room’s beautiful character bay window with its charming stained‑glass transom and the basement windows). In 2022, a new back patio door was added, the bathroom was refreshed while keeping its clawfoot tub (now set against tasteful tile surround), and both the sewer line and water line were replaced. 2023 brought a new front door with sidelights, a full interior repaint, plus a new privacy screen and wood stairs. In 2024, the eaves, soffit, and fascia were redone, the exterior was painted, and a new front window box was added. Everywhere you look, there’s beauty in the details: crisp white walls, gleaming hardwood floors, sunlit nooks for daydreaming, and a hidden desk space for creative sparks (arched openings, built‑in shelving, and a cozy fireplace add to the home’s warm, lived‑in character). Step outside to your own secret garden, where a large deck wraps around a mature tree (the deck is outfitted with string lights and room for dining or lounging) and a lush, green yard offers shade, privacy, and peace. A single detached garage (with additional parking space/driveway) plus extra parking add practicality without stealing the romance. This isn’t just a home—it’s a sanctuary, an artist’s retreat, and a place to live slowly and beautifully, one cup of tea, one golden sunset at a time. (id:1945)
