Welcome to one of Elgin's most charming streets, where mature trees arch overhead, neighbours still wave hello, and every home has its own unique character. Unlike many newer communities, Elgin was designed with warmth and personality in mind, creating a streetscape that feels established, inviting, and truly like home. What truly sets this property apart is the peace of mind it offers. Over the past five years, more than $100,000 has been invested in major upgrades and improvements, allowing the next owner to skip the expensive, often overlooked projects and focus on the fun part making the home their own. The "boring but important" work has already been done. A professionally installed $65,000, 26-panel solar system was added in 2024, delivering energy savings and long-term efficiency. Additional major investments include triple-pane windows and patio door, upgraded attic insulation, air duct sealing, a high-efficiency furnace, central air conditioning, hot water tank, roof shingles, Gemstone permanent LED soffit lighting, updated flooring throughout, and a premium Kinetico water treatment system with reverse osmosis drinking water. Many upgrades are recent and several remain under warranty. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the pride of ownership evident throughout. The refreshed exterior, featuring painted stucco, a newer front door, roof shingles, and Gemstone lighting, creates exceptional curb appeal. Inside, the home is warm, bright, and welcoming. The main floor offers a dedicated home office, while upgraded luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout the open-concept living space. New triple-pane windows flood the home with natural light while improving comfort and efficiency year-round. The kitchen serves as the heart of the home, offering abundant workspace, updated cabinetry, brand-new KitchenAid appliances, and seamless connection to the dining and living areas. A thoughtfully upgraded island features a new countertop and a large hidden storage cabinet perfect for baking sheets, pots, pans, and small appliances. Large windows beautifully bring the outdoors in, framing views of the private west-facing backyard and allowing mature landscaping, changing seasons, and afternoon sunshine to become part of everyday living. Whether preparing meals, gathering with family, or relaxing by the fireplace, you'll always feel connected to the outdoor space beyond. Upstairs you'll find three spacious bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a primary ensuite. The fully finished basement offers flexible space for a media room, games room, fitness area, hobby space, or future fourth bedroom thanks to the existing egress window. Outside, the west-facing backyard is designed to capture afternoon and evening sun. Enjoy summer barbecues on the spacious deck, relax in the included Softub spa, or simply unwind beneath the prairie sky. This is a rare opportunity to own a home where the major investments have already been made. Move in with confidence.
