197 BURRIS Street

220 - St. Clair/Blakeley Hamilton L8M 2J7

Stunning century home in the heart of St. Clair. Built in 1911 & thoughtfully updated throughout the years, it’s the kind of home that feels warm and substantial - where original craftsmanship & modern function coexist perfectly. The curb appeal speaks for itself: oversized front porch (fully restored in 2023) framed by original detailing that gives the home its unmistakable presence. Inside, clear sight lines through the airy & bright home greet you; old-world charm remains w/ original trim, banister, hardwood flooring w/ inlay detail, and soaring ceilings. Spacious eat-in kitchen opens to the separate dining room & features breakfast bar seating, pot lights, pendant lighting, ample storage, and high-end appliances including Blue Star gas stove & Sakura hood fan. Second level hosts 3 bedrooms & refreshed full washroom w/ clawfoot bath, while the finished loft level offers incredible bonus space for bedrooms, offices, studio, or playroom use. Basement includes rec room (currently home gym), 3-piece bath, laundry, and more storage. Meaningful mechanical & infrastructure improvements throughout: furnace (2024), ductwork inspected/cleaned (2024), A/C (2019), electrical upgraded to 200 amp w/ pony panel + EV charger in garage (2023), chimney removal (2024), floor restoration (2023), preventative remortaring (2021), and yearly eaves maintenance/repairs. Detached garage with laneway parking. Contractors have acknowledged straightforward potential for future attic bathroom addition using existing plumbing stack. Fully fenced yard, mature tree-lined streets, and a neighbourhood people specifically wait for (bonus of being inside the catchment for Adelaide Hoodless!). Steps to Gage Park, transit, and amenities. Character homes are easy to find - ones this well cared for are not. (id:2493)
