Charming All-Brick Ontario Cottage on a Rare 331-Ft-Deep Lot in the Heart of Old East Village! Welcome to 550 Elizabeth Street, a lovingly maintained 2-bedroom bungalow brimming with character and thoughtfully updated over the years. As you walk in, you'll appreciate the timeless charm of this all-brick Ontario cottage with hardwood floors throughout & soaring 11' high ceilings, original baseboards and trim, and beautiful oversized windows that fill the home with natural light. The inviting living room centres around a cozy gas fireplace, perfect for relaxed evenings, and flows into the kitchen and dining room. The kitchen offers the added convenience of in-suite laundry, while a practical mudroom off the driveway makes coming and going a breeze on rainy and snowy days. The primary bedroom features its own private 2-piece ensuite, and a full 3-piece bathroom serves the rest of the home. Outside is where this property truly stands apart: an expansive 45 x 331 ft lot offering exceptional potential for an auxiliary dwelling unit (ADU), garden suite, workshop, or simply a spectacular backyard retreat, along with a large 3-4 car driveway providing easy access to the yard. Major updates provide genuine peace of mind: lifetime metal roof (2019), updated electrical with 100A breaker panel and wiring (2018/19), spray foam insulation in basement (~2021), attic insulation (~2017) windows (2014/15), main water line (~2016), sewage cleanout (~2015), and an owned water heater. All this in one of London's most vibrant and fast growing neighbourhoods, just steps to 100 Kellogg Lane, the Western Fair District and Farmers' Market, Lorne Ave Park, and the independent shops, cafes, and restaurants along Dundas Street. Whether you're a first time buyer, downsizer, or investor eyeing the lot's future potential, 550 Elizabeth Street delivers character, convenience, and opportunity in equal measure.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $441/sqft, this is priced below the area average. This could represent genuine value, but let's investigate why. In my experience, underpriced homes often have deferred maintenance, unfavourable layouts, or motivated sellers. I'll help you determine which it is.
Negotiation Opportunity
At 46 days on site, this property has exceeded the typical selling timeline for London East. This creates leverage for buyers. The seller may be motivated by carrying costs, life circumstances, or previous deals falling through. I'd recommend a strategic offer below asking with terms that favour you.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in London East are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
