Eleven Aldridge Ave. includes a “very well-maintained” home on a 28x60foot lot that features a private landscaped backyard and a private driveway, says listing agent Chris Neill.

“There was a lot of interest, with “over 90 viewings of the property and we received five offers. The home is located in a very desirable neighbourhood close to parks, transit and amenities.”

The house, built in 1921, appealed to first-time homebuyers and families due to its location in a quiet neighbourhood and its proximity to great schools and other conveniences, he says.

The main floor includes a sunroom with a walkout to a porch, a mud room with a walkout to a deck, a large window in the living and dining rooms and a kitchen with a breakfast bar.

The lower level has a recreation room, a threepiece bathroom and an office.

Rebuilt in 2020, the fully detached garage has space to park one car. The backyard was also redone the same year and was fully re-landscaped. It has new composite decking, stairs and railings, Neill says.

“The home has a ton of great features, which was why it appealed to so many buyers. The enclosed front porch is great for storing coats and jackets. The layout of the main floor is perfect for entertaining family and friends. The landscaped backyard and swim spa make the space a year-round retreat. Between the driveway and garage there is parking for three cars, which is a premium in the area.”

As well, the neighbourhood offers a “huge sense of community” with events ranging from street festivals and social media groups, to the farmers markets and events at East Lynn Park,” he says. “There’s a variety of age groups in the neighbourhood but it definitely appeals to families.”
