1664 GREENVIEW CRESCENT — Windsor, Ontario

If you have been waiting for a first home where the back yard is the reason you buy it, this is the one that almost never comes up. A home that backs directly onto parkland, in an established Windsor neighbourhood, walking distance to Malden Park, at a first-time buyer price, is the kind of listing that gets talked about and then gets bought before most people ever get through the door. Here is what makes this one different. It is a three bedroom, two bathroom single family detached three level back-split, and the three level layout gives a young family something a stacked floorplan cannot: real separation between the living space, the sleeping space and the lower level, so the home grows with you instead of feeling smaller every year. The lot is the story. The back yard is huge, and it does not end at a fence with someone else's window on the other side of it. It backs onto Maurice Belanger Park, which means no rear neighbour, permanent green space behind you, and room for the kids and the dog that does not depend on what the neighbours decide to do with their yard. Out front you are walking distance to Malden Park, close to shopping for everything you actually need on a weeknight, and minutes from the border crossing if someone in the house works on the other side. And this home has never been on the market for sale. Not once. It is being offered for the very first time. Picture the first warm Saturday after you get the keys. The back gate is open, the kids are running between your yard and the park like it is all one property, and you are standing on your own grass with a coffee, not thinking about a landlord, not counting the years until you can finally settle in, just watching your own trees move. That is the entire reason people buy a first home. This one already does it. (id:63357)
