Welcome to 2 Leeson Street - a well-cared-for two-storey home in a convenient St. Catharines/Thorold border location, perched at the top of Burleigh Hill and close to Brock University, the Pen Centre, shopping, and highway access. The neighbourhood has recently benefited from provincial redevelopment, including new sidewalks, improved boulevards, streetscape upgrades, and enhanced walkability. Enjoy a 5-minute drive to Brock University, the Pen Centre, Hwy 406, and several public schools. With two nearby bus routes, the location is ideal for commuters, students, and families. Inside, the main floor offers a bright, functional layout with hardwood flooring, a comfortable living room, and a spacious eat-in kitchen refreshed in 2022 with quartz counters and newer appliances, plus a walkout to a private rear deck. The deck connects to a built-in kids' playground, adding a fun, family-friendly touch. The low-maintenance yard means less grass to cut and more time to enjoy the space. A main-floor laundry/mudroom provides direct access to the attached garage. Upstairs are three generous bedrooms, a bright 4-piece bath, and a charming nook ideal for reading or homework. Refinished stairs and railings, high ceilings, and plenty of natural light keep the upper level feeling open and bright. The finished basement adds a second living area with a cozy rec room and gas fireplace, full bath, and flex room ideal for a home office, music room, or guest space. A cold cellar and sump pump add extra storage and practicality.
