For sale: Detached

Welcome to 18 Hawarden Avenue, a remarkable century home dating to circa 1855, situated in Brantford’s coveted Dufferin neighbourhood. From its mature setting and timeless curb appeal to its generous interior proportions, the home seamlessly blends historic warmth with refined contemporary sensibility. Inside, expansive principal rooms, high ceilings, large windows, and an impressive layout create an exceptional backdrop for family living, entertaining, and work-from-home flexibility. Extensively renovated and improved between 2021 and 2026, the home has benefited from substantial updates to its electrical and plumbing systems, windows, bathrooms, kitchen, flooring, insulation, heating and cooling, porches, and principal living spaces. The third floor was fully renovated and insulated, while the primary suite was thoughtfully reimagined with a new ensuite featuring heated floors. Beautiful artisan plasterwork and Venetian plaster detailing add depth, texture, and understated sophistication while preserving the classic integrity of the residence. Set on a quiet cul-de-sac near Dufferin Park—with tennis and pickleball courts—and within walking distance of the Grand River and its trails, three elementary schools, and two high schools, 18 Hawarden Avenue presents a rare opportunity to own an exceptional character home in one of Brantford’s most recognizable neighbourhoods.
