*At first sight it may not appear that this townhouse has not had a lot of upgrades - but for the family on a budget - it is perfect! Some sealer, paint, a new tap and enjoy your new home. Original, solid wood kitchen cupboards, with attractive slope, moldings, and hardware (they have one light coat of white paint) begging for some tsp. light sanding and your choice of new paint. The kitchen countertop is new. The ceramic tile backsplash and kitchen (and bathroom floors) are basically new, and the owner is leaving 2 jugs of sealer to make them luminous. The living room, stairs and upstairs are nice laminate, and a nice coat of protective sealer would be great. The white walls throughout could use a bit of preparation. Did I mention T.S.P again! Just as the walls are a good primer type base - the beautiful soundproofing cement block has only ever had the slimmest paint applied. This home is snug and easy to heat as the quiet, lovely neighbors on each side insulate the house with their furnaces. The original furnace works well. For the last two heating seasons to prolong the life of the furnace the owner knowing the house would be sold did not use the furnace but used electric heaters (the ducts do need cleaning) The hot water tank functions excellently. The new condo board manager (who vows to work to continually improve this complex has assessed needed repairs on this unit: The concrete slab on the west side will be redone as soon as the frost is gone next spring. The block heater electric plug in on the assigned stall is missing and will be in place before winter this year The second-floor windows are being looked at. Let’s talk about sunset views! Enjoy the west view sunset and view of the foothills from the big living room window - daily. This view is even sweeter from the second floor. It’s a quiet complex but if you have children they will love the safe greenspace on either side. The walking path on 24th Ave is a gem for young and old. People enjoy walks or biking and a 3-minute walk to the end of 24th Ave and you will be wowed by the sunset and panoramic view of city lights. The mailboxes are on 19th street. The bus system is literally at the door - is excellent and if the bus is your thing - you can be dropped at many different shopping and grocery destinations.
