It currently features three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, including a convenient main floor powder room - a practical advantage for busy households and growing families. The finished basement is accessed by a true separate side entrance and includes a 3-piece bathroom, providing excellent flexibility for extended family living, a private home office, guest space, or future in-law suite potential (subject to municipal approvals). Natural light fills the main living areas, and the functional layout flows comfortably to the backyard deck, creating an easy setting for everyday living and entertaining. The fully fenced yard offers room to relax, garden, or host friends, while the private driveway accommodates three vehicles. Gas service is available on the street for future conversion options if desired. For buyers moving beyond condo living, this home offers private outdoor space, multiple bathrooms, and parking, all while remaining close to everyday conveniences. Families will appreciate the proximity to nearby schools and parks, and commuters will benefit from quick access to Highway 401 and GO Transit. Shopping at Oshawa Centre, grocery stores, restaurants, and Lakeridge Health are all within easy reach. Lakeview Park and the waterfront trail are just a short drive away, offering year-round recreation along the shores of Lake Ontario. A flexible home in a well-connected neighbourhood, with space that adapts to your needs.
