Kortright Hill bungalow with huge potential

This executive bungalow is located in Kortright Hills neighbourhood, known for its rolling hills, mature trees, proximity to parks, nature trails, schools, shopping, and easy access to the 401 for commuters. I know the write says there are “to many updates to mention” but I feel it still needs quite a bit. I like the idea of add my own taste to a home but I realize that isn’t for everyone. This home is a great value as it is underpriced and has huge long-term potential. You would never need to move again how nice does that sound:) Other features include solid hardwood floors throughout, a double-wide concrete driveway, and a side entrance with separate access to the basement. If you wanted to create a suite for family or passive income that is certainly an option. This home is listed with Re/Max Professional Inc out of the GTA.

I'm biased but today's pick is 51 Flanders

Having lived in this area before, I may be biased, but I highly recommend Crane Park just down the street for its outdoor activities, paddling, off leash door park and hiking opportunities. If you're in search of a peaceful haven in the midst of the city, look no further. You can bask in the morning sun through the large front windows, and enjoy the sun-drenched in-ground pool all day long in the private backyard. On hot days, you can retreat to the upper deck with its retractable awning for some cool shade. During the fall and winter, cozy up by not one, but two gas fireplaces with your favourite book and beverage. You'll also be just a short walk to the city bus stop at the end of the street for easy access to the university, schools, Stone Road Mall, shops, and restaurants. Commuting is a breeze too, with the 401 just a quick drive down the Hanlon. Don't miss out on this wonderful family home! This home is listed with Royal Lepage Royal City Realty.

Old University beauty

My favourite place on today's list is 43 Forbes Ave.

This property sounds like a great investment opportunity for both investors and university parents looking for a place for their children to live while attending the University of Guelph. The location is a dream for those who want to be within walking distance to both the university and downtown.

The fact that this is a legal 2 unit home with a total of bedrooms provides flexibility for the buyer. The bonus of a double driveway from the rear of the property that can park up to 6 cars is also a great feature.

The third floor loft with a very large bedroom and bathroom adds to the uniqueness of this property, and the potential for dividing the bedroom or using it as an office provides additional options.

The second floor with 2 bedrooms, living room, kitchen, and another bathroom is also a great feature.   The basement with two good sized bedrooms, large windows, and a Jack and Jill bathroom will certainly attract higher rent.

The fact that the owner has meticulously cared for this property and always selected the highest quality tenants is also reassuring for those looking to invest in a property.

Overall, this property offers a lot of potential and flexibility for buyers, and the rental income from the tenants who would like to stay provides added security. This home is listed with Red Brick Real Estate Brokerage.

Huge potential in this Dovercliffe Park backsplit

This is a description of a traditional 3 bedroom backsplit home located in a quiet and established neighbourhood in Southend. The home has only had one owner and is now being sold to the next family who can spruce it up and make it their own. The property features a separate side entrance that could be used to generate extra income from a future basement apartment. Although the home has great potential, it does require some updating.

The home is located in a great neighborhood that offers access to excellent schools, parks, tennis courts, walking trails, and transit. It is also just 5 minutes away from a mall and has great transit options to the nearby University. Despite its proximity to amenities, the neighborhood is known for being peaceful and quiet.

The home is being sold in "as is" condition, which means that any necessary repairs or updates will need to be made by the new owners. Overall, this is a great opportunity for a family looking to renovate and customize a home in a desirable location with potential for additional income.
