152 Main Street Burk's Falls, Ontario P0A 1C0

$399,000

A century home with character and updates in equal measure, right in the heart of Burk's Falls. Built in 1888, this three-plus-one bedroom home has high ceilings throughout and the kind of details you just don't find in newer builds. The things that cost real money have already been taken care of - new roof in 2022, new natural gas furnace and heat pump in 2023. Receipts are available upon request. The updated kitchen includes all appliances and a handmade island. A covered back porch leads out to a fenced yard. The home sits at the top of the hill, so the neighbours are below you, and established low-maintenance perennial gardens give you more privacy than you'd expect from an in-town lot. Three bedrooms and an updated bathroom upstairs. The lower level has a fourth bedroom with its own entrance from the backyard, a two-piece bathroom, and a storage and laundry room - a natural fit for guests, a teenager, or a home office with a separate entrance. An extra-large single car garage and paved driveway complete the package. The primary school, the Family Health Team, the park, post office, Home Hardware, the pierogi truck, the library, and the Heritage River Walk are all close by. Everything your family needs is within a short drive. New price, same home that's been cared for from top to bottom. If you've been watching and waiting, now's the time to come see it. (id:63772)

152 Main Street is a four-bedroom, two-bathroom century home in the heart of Burk’s Falls, now offered at $399,000, reduced from $419,000. Built in 1888, it keeps the character of a home from that era while carrying the updates that matter most.

The main level has original hardwood floors, high ceilings, and a layout that moves from the living room through the dining room and into the kitchen. The kitchen has been updated with a handmade island, and all appliances are included. Built-in cabinetry in the dining room adds storage and character. It’s a main floor that works for a family.

Upstairs are three bedrooms and an updated four-piece bathroom. Both primary bedrooms have walk-in closets, the kind of storage older homes often lack, and the high ceilings carry through to give the rooms an open, airy feel.

The lower level has a possible fourth bedroom or family room with its own walkout entrance to the backyard, plus a two-piece bathroom, laundry room, and storage. With the separate entrance, it suits a guest space, a teenager who wants their own room, an in-law setup, or a home office.

The Backyard at 152 Main Street Burks Falls

The backyard is one of the home’s strongest features. It sits at the top of the hill with the neighbours below, and established low-maintenance perennial gardens give it a private, secluded English-garden feel. The yard is fully fenced, and a covered back porch leads straight out to it. Because of the hilltop position, there are remarkably few bugs, and the back door stays open for the family dog from May through October. The occasional hole in the yard is the dog’s contribution.

An extra-large detached single-car garage sits at the front, with a paved driveway providing parking for up to five vehicles. The lot is 0.15 acres, rectangular, with west-facing frontage.

The major updates are already done. The roof was replaced in 2022 and is still under warranty. A new natural gas furnace and heat pump were installed in 2023, both still under warranty. The kitchen has been updated and the home has been painted throughout. The fieldstone foundation has stood since 1888.

152 Main Street is walking distance to the primary school, the Family Health Team, the park, post office, Home Hardware, the library, and the Heritage River Walk. To arrange a viewing, call 705-380-3136.
