Talk to any Real Estate Agent in Peterborough and the story is the same. We’re seeing strong demand from out of town buyers as well as local residents for turn-key properties. This extends across many different property types – from entry-level, affordable homes to executive properties and waterfront cottages as well.
One property group that is extremely popular are homes that can accommodate multi-generational, family living and/or space that can provide some extra income. Welcome to 315 Lindan Ave., the perfect fit for extended family living or income.
Location
First, let’s discuss location – the key to any good real estate investment.
Peterborough’s north end has been a sought after real estate location for years – and for good reason. Close proximity to great schools, recreation, shopping, bike trails and more. Now I realize I may have some bias – I grew up in the north end – so I’ll apologize to my east, west and south end friends who will argue in defence of their turf.
I love Peterborough and all it has to offer so let’s just state for now – the north end has a lot going for it including The Peterborough Zoo – Canada’s only free Accredited Zoo and Aquarium (CAZA) facility that features over 40 animal species and Trent University – one of Canada’s leading, post-secondary educational institutions. With the proven real estate adage “Location, location, location”, I think it’s safe to say that Peterborough’s north end is a sure winner.
315 Lindan Aves. close proximity to Trent University has proven to be a real asset – the owners have in the past, operated successful Airbnb accommodations that catered to both Trent students and their visiting parents, not to mention professionals who were taking workshops, at Trent. They’ve earned supplemental income ranging from $1000-$2000 per month through services such as Airbnb. More recently, the house has served as a lovely home for this family of four that has included parents living in the basement accommodations – true multi-generational, in-law living at it’s best.
Features
Lindan Avenue represents all that we love in Peterborough – well-cared-for homes, mature trees, large, deep lots and easy access. 315 Lindan Avenue is the perfect fit – double wide driveway, massive maple trees and a nice sized, level back yard.
Step inside and you’ll appreciate recent renovations that have opened up the kitchen to the living/dining area. A tastefully done kitchen renovation includes lovely counters and sink, newer stainless appliances and a pantry for storage. Three decent sized bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom complete the picture upstairs. Downstairs, the homeowners added an extensive storage area that could easily serve as a playroom or office. The basement also includes a three-piece bathroom, large bedroom and a large family room area with counter, sink, fridge, etc.., with a separate access door.
The street features natural gas and fibe Internet (wired to the house). This home has an oil furnace – however, the Homeowners have researched converting to natural gas in the future. The property meets the minimum requirements as stated by Enbridge, and they’ve received a price from a local HVAC firm.
All in all, this is a very well maintained, tastefully renovated home which has provided many, wonderful family memories. Listed at $439,900, it’s waiting for a new family to continue the legacy, or perhaps an investor seeking new opportunities. Regardless, you won’t be disappointed – and you can ask about “The Hutch” and bunnies later…
