252 Park st, perched on the corner of Park and Helen streets is the perfect mix of character and contemporary living! Built in 1948 this home has enjoyed the iterations of design over the years to suit the families that have loved it. Interlocking pavers line a double-wide parking area and lead in to the fenced, private yard and side entrance. Enter in to the mudroom and through to the family room and you will immediately appreciate the view of the open-concept layout and eat-in-kitchen beyond. The working kitchen offers generous use of hardwood cabinetry, granite countertops and a serving island plus room for a table to seat 8! A pantry with access to the backyard is a bonus! Take the 'back stairs' up to the second level where custom built in cabinets line the hallway connecting a fabulous ensuite bathroom with oversized glass shower and double windows to the high-ceilings of the primary suite with bay window and southern views. A step up and you're in the original upper level featuring a main bath (reno '08), and three huge bedrooms plus bonus playroom/den. All of this with fabulous hardwood floors, original trim, doors, dormers and character galore. Take the original hardwood staircase back down to the main level where you find french doors to the vestibule entrance. Hardwood floors continue left to the large living room with windows on both sides and a wood burning fireplace with mantle. Across the hall is the dining room with bay window and built-in china cabinets, wiring for wall sconces and more beautiful hardwood. Further down the hall is the office and two-piece bathroom across the hall rounding out this level. Taking the staircase down to the basement level you'll find a large open-concept recreation room with sink and appliances, den and 3 pc bathroom, the furnace/storage room and laundry room on the west side, and walk up access to the side yard. Too many amazing features to list here. Book a visit to see it in person. You'll be sorry if you miss it! (id:47421)
