903 Boyle STREET — Indian Head, Saskatchewan

Everyone wants character. This is the kind you simply can’t build new. Romantic, distinctive and brimming with architectural details, this remarkable 3-bedroom home sits proudly on a double corner lot and offers an opportunity to restore and reimagine a piece of history. From the exterior, the craftsmanship captures your attention: ornate millwork and brackets, scalloped shingle detailing, decorative columns, intricate diamond-paned dormer windows and the original rooftop widow’s walk with decorative ironwork. The curved dormer, round divided window and graceful rooflines give this home a presence impossible to replicate in modern construction. Inside, the character continues. Original details include ornate hardware, a detailed staircase, period lighting with matching hobnail-style glass globes, decorative stained/leaded glass and ornate cast-iron radiators, serviced by the updated boiler installed in 2009. The main floor offers a generous living area and a kitchen with a door leading directly to the deck and yard. Three bedrooms provide plenty of room for family. There is also potential for an upper-level balcony, adding another opportunity to take advantage of this home's unique architecture. The basement provides practical space with laundry, a second bathroom and utility/storage areas. Outside, the double corner lot provides room to garden, entertain and enjoy, while a shed/workshop offers valuable storage and workspace. This is not a cookie-cutter home, and that's exactly what makes it special. The character is already here. The next owner gets to decide how to bring it forward:preserve the history, thoughtfully update it, or create a beautiful blend of old and new. Everyone wants the character of an old home. Few get the opportunity to shape one themselves. A little romantic. A little mysterious. Completely one of a kind. For someone who can see the beauty in its details and possibilities in its future, this could be the home you've been waiting for. (id:63357)
