Brampton Homes for Sale by the Wilding Team brings you Hillcrest Avenue:

Calling all first time buyers, renovators, developers and single people looking for a detached home under $500,000.   Look no further.  This small older home is located in the Queen Street corridor in the City of Brampton and has great access to public transit.  The ZUM Bus  goes east and west on Queen and the Brampton Transit takes you north and southbound on Kennedy Road so you can just hop on transit and save on driving your car.  You can walk to  downtown Brampton in minutes and enjoy restaurants, The Rose Theatre, Gage Park and much more.  There is also the GO Train system in downtown Brampton that you could take if you work in Toronto.   It is conveniently located near restaurants, Doctors offices, the new Peel Memorial Centre, Shoppers Drug Store and banks.  This home might work for your budget after all so just give us a call to view. 

Exterior:

This house is waiting for someone to fix it up and make into a little dream home.  Perfect for single person, couple, investment property to rent out or do what others have done on the street and put up a new home.  Lots of that going on in this area.  There is parking in front of the house for two cars and down the driveway to the concrete pad you can fit another two vehicles.  There was a garage on the concrete pad many years ago….in case you want to make an application to the City of Brampton for another garage to be erected.  Presently the owner has two sheds at the back of the yard for storage.  This could be useful for those who are creative and turn it into something else.  The lot size is 32 feet by 97 feet and there is a fenced in back yard with a gate.  The owner mentioned the back part of the roof was done in 2014.

Interior:

This home was built in 1925 and is in need of renovations to bring it up to todays standards.   The original porch was closed in and eventually opened up on the inside to the living room.   Part of this porch is now the laundry room and storage…so no basement laundry days. There is another room off the living room that the owner presently uses as a workshop.  The kitchen is in the back of the house and is a couple of steps down from the living room.  It has a walkout to the yard, laminate floors, white cabinets and access to the bedroom.  There is a basement in this house but the stairs are a bit tricky to manoeuvre and it is only used for storage and the furnace and hot water tank.  Note that the furnace, central air conditioning were installed in 2010 and the owner has the receipt for them and they were paid in full so no leased furnace with this house.  There is only one bathroom in this house, just like in days gone by but it is a good size with oak cabinet and it is a four piece. 

Amenities:

The advantage of living near the Brampton’s Downtown core is simple, diverse neighbours, easy to walk to get to things like coffee at Starbucks or Tim’s, enjoy a function at the Rose Theatre and Rose Square has entertainment most of the year too.  The Brampton’s farmer’s market that use to only fun in the summer is branching out this year.  There are lots of places and parkland to walk or enjoy playing tennis, watch a soccer game, or in the winter skate at Gage Park in the meandering ice rink that goes through the trees.

There is a future plan in place for this subdivision that includes a medical expansion of the existing Peel Memorial Centre so watch out for huge growth in this area.  Only time will tell.

City of Brampton offers:

We have many types of stores for shopping from the indoor Bramalea City Centre and Shoppers World mall to the outdoor big box stores at Trinity Common with lots of restaurants not to mention Silver City movie theatre.  We have five Walmart stores, small businesses and unique diverse restaurants that will delight any taste.  There are so many recreation centres that offer all sorts of programs for adults, children and seniors and many of them have swimming pools, soccer and other sports.  There is a seniors complex at Flowertown near McLaughlin Road and Queen Street that offers lots of things from Tai-Chi, art, woodworking, crafts and social programs too. There area many day care facilities and plenty of schools that include French Immersion,  Art Schools, Sheridan College, private and separate or public.  Did you know we even have dirt bike trails, skate boarding locations, lakes that have swimming, fishing and even a beach area too.  Ask The Wilding Team about something YOU are interested in and see if we can suggest where you can locate it in the City of Brampton.
