5 Hillcrest Avenue — Falconbridge, Ontario

Tucked away on a quiet dead-end road with walking and sledding trails out the back door, this beautifully restored 1960s character home sits on a large private lot backing onto green space. With 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, over 3,000 sqft of total living space, and attached garage, it blends original charm with thoughtful modern updates throughout. From the moment you step inside, you’ll appreciate the warmth of the hardwood floors, classic character details, and timeless touches including a charming laundry chute. A true four bedroom home with all bedrooms and two updated full bathrooms on the second floor, including a large primary bedroom with ensuite. The main level features a dedicated main-floor office and powder room, a bright open concept living/dining room, and the refreshed kitchen featuring butcher block countertops, refinished cabinetry, updated fixtures, and added pantry storage. Downstairs, the finished basement adds bright living space with luxury vinyl flooring, full waterproofing, and 8-foot ceilings — ideal as a rec room, gym, hobby space, or guest retreat. Major improvements provide peace of mind for years to come: roof replaced within the past decade, all new energy-efficient windows and exterior doors, upgraded 200-amp electrical service, extensive plumbing updates, a serviced boiler system, and a WETT-certified wood-burning fireplace. Fresh paint, updated lighting and ceiling fans, and enhanced with additional soundproofing and fire-resistant construction features. Outside, a large deck — previously screened in and ready to be again — overlooks established perennial gardens and garden boxes, with a shed converted into a greenhouse for the gardener or hobbyist. A resurfaced driveway with parking for 5, large garage with workspace, and dog run complete the package, all surrounded by mature trees in a peaceful country-like setting just minutes from city amenities. The hard work is done — simply move in and enjoy. (id:63357)
