This 4-bed, 3-bath two-storey house sits on a 90x118 foot lot in Port Colborne's Sugarloaf neighbourhood, minutes from Lake Erie. Brick and wood exterior gives it serious curb appeal, and the long concrete driveway fits several cars plus there's a garage. Inside, you get a proper foyer, a living room, a separate family room with a fireplace, and a dining area off the kitchen. Kitchen's been updated with newer appliances including a dishwasher and stove. Upstairs, four bedrooms spread out, with the primary having its own ensuite and a sneak peek of the lake. There's also a full bath on this level plus a powder room on the main floor. Basement is fully finished with a laundry room, a workshop area, and another rec space, so the kids can spread out or you can set up a home gym. Heat pump and gas heating keep things efficient, and there's central vac already installed. You're about 2.2 km to Port Colborne High School for the school bus route. Taxes run $6,403 a year, and with the median sale price nearby around $475k, this $699,900 listing is priced a bit above that but reflects the oversized lot and the lake proximity. Only 5 other active listings in the area, so it's not a saturated market. Backyard's level for easy play or gardening, and the deck gives you a quiet spot for morning coffee or BBQs.
