1030 York Street, London

Freshly painted exterior, a newer two-year-old metal roof, and a vibrant entrance create a cheerful first impression of this York Street home. Inside, you'll be welcomed into this warm and welcoming two-storey that has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully updated over the years. A spacious living and dining area gives you plenty of room to gather, while the kitchen-updated within the past five years-adds a sweet eat-in spot overlooking the backyard. It's the kind of view that might have you lingering over your morning coffee a little longer. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are together, one with a large walk-in closet, along with an updated bathroom featuring a new tub & shower insert and a clever bit of separation between the bathing and toilet areas-a small detail that can make busy mornings run much more smoothly. And don't overlook the lower level. Finished, comfortable and far from feeling like an afterthought, it's ready to become the ultimate movie-night hideaway, gaming cave, playroom or simply an extra place to retreat when everyone needs their own corner. Out back is one of this home's best surprises. The fully fenced yard is deeper than you might expect, with a side gate, plenty of green space and a picturesque little garden shed at the far end. Settle onto the patio and take it all in-it feels peaceful, private and wonderfully removed from the city around you. Yet when you're ready to head out, you're just steps from the excitement around 100 Kellogg Lane and the Hard Rock Hotel, with Western Fair District, BMO Centre, great local eats and downtown London all within easy reach. Character, updates, a fantastic backyard and plenty of room to make yourself at home-all at a price point that makes this East London gem especially worth a look.
