Take a step inside, and see what homes were like when they were BUILT TO LAST. Built in 1947, this heritage gem is full of timeless character, while thoughtful updates blend seamlessly with the home’s historic appeal. From the original fir floors underfoot to the working brass doorknobs and classic wood-framed windows (complete with original screens and storm windows for chilly months), every detail whispers of quality craftsmanship built to last for generations. Set on a large corner lot with a white picket fence and lush flower gardens, this charming 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers something rare downtown: a spacious yard shaded by a magnificent heritage walnut tree, and a cherry tree that blooms each spring. Imagine sipping coffee on the quaint back porch while enjoying birdsong in this quiet neighborhood. Inside, the kitchen and lower-level flooring have been refreshed, hot water on demand system added, the bathroom tastefully updated (and features the original cast iron clawfoot tub), and the roof replaced, so you can move in and relax. There’s a double carport, and plenty of free street parking for guests. But with everything Kelowna has just outside your door-restaurants, shops, Martin Park and the lake only an 11-minute walk away—you might find yourself walking or biking everywhere. If you’ve been dreaming of owning a single-family home close to downtown where you can enjoy both urban conveniences and the peace of your own private yard, this is it. (id:6769)
