Character on "The Drive". Situated literally only steps to the heart of Commercial Drive is this cute little craftsman house. Built in 1910 but fully renovated in 1996 this home is a prefect blend of old world charm but modern conveniences. The main floor features an inviting living room with high ceilings, wood burning fireplace and lots of windows. The living area blends seamlessly into the dining room which is large enough for a table for 12 and a set of French Doors that exit on to the 170sqft back deck that's perfect for entertaining with friends or dining al fresco. The kitchen features lots of cabinet space, newer stainless appliances, high ceilings and tons of light from the windows looking out to the south facing, recently landscaped yard.

Upstairs is a massive master bedroom with it's own balcony for relaxing on early in the morning or to catch a moment of serenity prior to tucking in for the night. The second bedroom on this level is a perfect kids room with lots of light and a nice view out to the yard. A bright bathroom with new vanity, refinished classic clawfoot tub and separate shower rounds off this level. On top of this already perfect level is a small bonus loft that would be a perfect kids play area or reading nook.

The lower level is currently a 1 bedroom au pere suite but has hook-ups in place for a fully separate 1 bedroom suite if need be.

Outside of the home is a recently landscaped south facing yard perfect for summer fun. whether it's tending to a garden or simply relaxing this private oasis in the city is something special.

The cherry on top of this home is the location. Located 20 meters from Commercial Drive, 190 meters from the Britannia Community Centre and 150 meters from Grandview Park this home is about as central as you can get yet feels completely removed from the action. Steps to such local favorites as Havana and BierCraft you may never actually use your kitchen.

This is a true pleasure to show. If you've ever dreamt of a home like this off The Drive this may be the one.
