Privacy, charm and income potential: this home has it all. Set on a private corner lot surrounded by mature trees, this updated raised bungalow offers 2 kitchens, 2 private gardens, a separate entrance, 5 parking spaces, and a supermarket just a 2-minute walk away. Elegant French doors welcome you in, and hardwood floors, large windows and a functional layout fill every corner with natural light. The main floor has 3 large bedrooms and a 5-piece bath with a double vanity, separate soaker tub and standing shower. The modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances opens into the dining room and out through a sliding door to a raised deck. Below, the private garden unfolds like a hidden courtyard, with manicured lawns and mature trees, the perfect setting to host gatherings your guests will be sure to remember. Downstairs, a separate entrance through the garage means the lower level never has to share a front door with the house above. With a second kitchen, a big bedroom, a large rec room, a 3-piece bath and a cleverly placed laundry room both floors can reach, it's ready for extended family or rental income. The second private garden, complete with a large shed and greenhouse, can be set aside entirely for the lower level, giving its occupants outdoor space of their own. And the location: Zehrs is steps away, Uptown Waterloo and the Public Square are minutes away, and Highway 85, the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier are all a short hop. Come see it for yourself!
