Step into history with this downtown St. Catharines century home, seamlessly blending original baseboards, mouldings, and heating grates with modern kitchen and bathroom updates. The entire house was recently repainted, enhancing its timeless allure. Sunlit interiors feature 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a main floor office, and an open-concept design where the dining room with a sitting area and kitchen flow seamlessly. The patio doors off the sitting area lead out to a generously sized backyard – a rare find in the city – offering ample parking space for 4 vehicles in the driveway accessed by the alley. Conveniently located, you can walk to the PAC in 10 minutes, the Meridian Centre in 15 minutes, and a nearby park with a splash pad, community garden, rec center, dog park, and pollinator garden in just 5 minutes. Commuting is a breeze with quick access to the QEW and 406 in 3 minutes, while the mall or smart center is just over a 5-minute drive away. The owners cherish the unique character created by the juxtaposition of classic and modern features, offering walk-in closets, a three season porch to watch thunderstorms, and an active community with yearly events like The Fitz garage sale, caroling, ice rink, and neighborhood trivia. Don’t miss the chance to make this St. Catharines gem your home!
