Character home on 1/3 acre! Situated on a corner lot in a sought-after area of Duncan, this property has southern exposure which makes it sun-drenched all day long & a gardener’s dream. There are 12 raised garden beds, many with timed micro-drip irrigation. Enjoy bountiful harvests of fruit trees, as well as fresh produce from your garden…there is year-round foraging, right in your own yard! The bees & hummingbirds love the pollinator garden & the array of beautiful plants & trees. The landscaping here is breathtaking! The property has a garden storage shed with a living roof, which has been planted with succulents & wildflowers, a wood shed, another larger storage shed or workshop, a beautiful flagstone pathway, and large decks for entertaining. There’s even a new firepit area that has propane piped in! Just when you think it can’t get much better…it does! This lovely home has such warm and inviting character and charm. The current owners have retained the original layout, and have done many updates to the home…a recycled rubber roof under warranty, insulated the shop space accessed from the outside of the home, full interior painting, solid core interior doors w/Emtek hardware, new kitchen counters & hardware, plus banquette seating with storage below, updated light fixtures, gutters/downspouts & perimeter drainage, new laundry, dishwashers, and a new hot water tank. The master bedroom plus one other bedroom are on the main level, plus the charming kitchen and living room with woodstove. Beautiful hardwood flooring throughout, and access to the deck from the kitchen makes bbqing & entertaining a breeze. The upstairs has an add'l bedroom and loft-style open dormer rooms on both sides of the upper level. And one of my favorite features of this home is the gorgeous 1-bedroom in-law suite on the lower level that has its own private entrance and patio area! Within the Urban Containment Boundary, possible redevelopment potential...buyer to make own inquiries.
