Welcome to one of the Brampton Homes For Sale by The Wilding Team:
This was a great family home for over 60 years and they raised their children, worked close by in Brampton and enjoyed the City of Brampton and all it had to offer but it is time to move on. Would you like to live in a bungalow instead of a townhouse then come out and have a look for yourself. This detached raised bungalow is on a large lot that is about 58 x 134 feet and totally fenced for kids or pets. There is also and oversized home made shed for tools, bikes, gardening equipment or a workshop.
There is a carport at the side of the house with a rod iron fence to the back yard. Plenty of parking in the paved driveway for at least 3 more cars.
Calling all Investors OR Renovators who want an opportunity to make this home into a TWO family Dwelling. Ask The Wilding Team about other Brampton Homes For Sale that might work for you too.
Main Floor:
The entrance to the house has a steel door with a decorative glass insert for natural light to enter the hallway. Most homes in this age bracket came with strip hardwood floors but these are stained darker than the common blond colour. A large living room is great when you have a young family that you all want to gather in the same room to keep your eye on them. There is an oversized bay window and the sill has ceramics so that you can put plants there to grow…if you are a gardener you could even put some herbs there over the winter to enjoy.
The dining room was combined with the kitchen and has a vinyl floor for easy clean up with children when they drop food. Dark wood cabinets add to this big kitchen plus there is even an ironing board cupboard….yup just like in the olden days. Appliances are included: refrigerator with bottom freezer, glass top stove and counter microwave. There is a door off the kitchen to a landing and then to the back yard. A really nice feature at this door is the metal awning that prevents the rain and snow from gathering at the door. Beside this door is a retractable awning that would be nice in the summer months.
The Primary Bedroom is large enough for a king size bed plus it has a walk in closet…that is unusual for an older home as most closets are small.
The four piece bathroom is a bit dated for today’s taste but NO house is perfect and it does have a brushed chrome faucet at the sink so that’s nice.
Basement Level:
There is a back door entrance to this home that goes right to the basement so anyone looking to make a second dwelling in this house does not have to dig out another entrance. The great thing about a bungalow is that whatever space you have on the main level you have that same space in the basement to utilize minus the furnace area. Speaking of furnace it was new in 2021.
There is a TWO piece washroom AND a separate SHOWER STALL beside the washroom…so the plumbing is there. In the old days MEN would come home from working at a dirty job and they would go directly to the basement shower to clean off then put their dirty clothes right into the laundry room. How times have changed eh?
City of Brampton has so much to offer:
If you are not familiar with the City of Brampton you have SO MUCH to explore when you move here.

We have a very diverse group of people living in Brampton and that lets us enjoy almost every type of cuisine you can think of: East Indian, Vietnamese, Italian, Mexican, Chinese and Japanese and many others. Of course being a large city we also have many big chain restaurants like Kelsey’s, the Keg, Cora’s for breakfast, Boston Pizza….or some of our cities famous spots Fanzorelli’s Restaurant & Wine Bar, Antica Osteria or simple Heritage Fish and Chips.
Want to get out of the city…we are close to so many things:
You can head to Caledon and hike the Caledon Trail that is part of the CANADA TRAIL plus you could go fishing in Orangeville or take a walk on the boardwalk over the water. You could visit the Badlands which is unique formation of red rolling hills.
Visit Orangeville (enjoy lunch at the Bluebird Cafe & Grill) or Caledon Village or head out to Glen Williams near Georgetown for that small town feeling. There are lots of artisan shops and many artists in Glen Williams showing you pottery, glass blowing, weaving, sewing, artwork, plus there is a great ice cream place or have lunch.
https://www.bluebirdcafeandgrill.ca/ You should reserve!
Our many roads take us to the country in minutes or to other cities nearby like Mississauga & Milton or Toronto. We have the 407, 410, and 401 to the south plus someday there will be another highway north of Brampton to take you to the 400 for those cottage lovers. That will alleviate a LOT of TIME for those people.
