Opportunity awaits! This "diamond in the rough" presents a fantastic opportunity for someone with creative vision to bring new life to this architecturally unique home with a versatile bonus loft space in the desirable community of Oakridge! Located just steps from greenspace and a playground on a lot afforded privacy by numerous mature trees, you’ll love the parklike backyard setting. The home features three main floor bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a good-sized primary with 3pc ensuite and walk-in closet. The vaulted loft space, accessed by a spiral staircase, boasts endless possibilities and would make a fantastic office, library, study space, or dreamy kids play loft. The sunken living room has high ceilings and wood burning fireplace with gas assist. The adjacent dining area is large enough to entertain family and friends. The basement is developed with a large rec room and family room, a workshop area, laundry room and storage space. Enjoy a relaxing evening on the private rear deck, equipped with gas barbecue hookup. There’s no shortage of parking or workshop space, thanks to the double attached garage plus additional detached garage with third parking bay, furnace and separate workshop/hobby area with access to water! A few noteworthy upgrades include a newer furnace and thermostat (2018), Rinnai RU160 tankless hot water system (2018), and a new roof on the house and detached garage in 2015.
