Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1949, this home is well-maintained and move-in ready but remains dated. While it features recent cosmetic 'refreshes' like interior paint, landscaping, and new plumbing/electrical fixtures, the core kitchen and bathrooms (notably the vintage pink tile) appear to be over 20 years old. The listing's emphasis on 'future expansion' and 'redevelopment' further indicates the current structure is a candidate for modernization.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7424, living area = 1417.
Middle School: Hillcrest Elementary School (9/10). High School: Piedmont High School (10/10).
The expansive 7,400+ sq. ft. lot features rare dual street access from Buckeye Avenue and Harbord Drive, offering significant opportunities for future expansion, redevelopment, or potential subdivision.
With only two bedrooms and 1,417 square feet of living space, the home's current footprint may be restrictive for larger families or buyers seeking more interior volume.
Despite recent cosmetic refreshes, the 1949 split-level configuration may require a more extensive structural renovation to meet the demands of modern open-concept living.
