If you're leaving a condo and want outdoor space of your own, or downsizing without giving up full-size rooms, this LaSalle townhouse gives you both. It sits off North Shore Boulevard, a short drive from LaSalle Park and the Burlington waterfront, with 2 owned parking spaces. The home has been extensively updated, from professionally removed popcorn ceilings and new crown moulding to a renovated kitchen with stone counters, a marble mosaic backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. Hardwood carries through the dining and living rooms, where a walkout opens to a private, fully fenced patio with new concrete. It's a good spot for dinner outside on a summer evening, and BBQs are permitted. Upstairs, the layout was reworked from three bedrooms to two. The primary suite took over the third bedroom's space and now has a walk-in closet, a custom accent wall, and a renovated 3-piece ensuite. The second bedroom is the same size as the primary and has its own 3-piece bath down the hall, so a guest or grown child has a bathroom of their own. Downstairs, an open recreation room with newly insulated walls gives you room for a home office or a second lounge, and a separate laundry and utility room is on the same level. The furnace, central air, and owned tankless water heater were all installed in 2022, and the dishwasher is new, so the big mechanical items are already done. The Burlington GO and the QEW are a short drive away for commuters, with Joseph Brant Hospital and Mapleview Shopping Centre close by and the Francis Road Bikeway within walking distance.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $500/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.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Burlington's current market, desirable homes often receive multiple offers within 5-7 days. If you're seriously interested, I recommend booking a showing immediately. However, never let urgency override due diligence - we'll still do proper inspections.
Condo Considerations
For condos, I always review the status certificate thoroughly. Key things I look for: reserve fund health (should be well-funded), any upcoming special assessments, rules that might affect your lifestyle (pets, rentals, renovations), and the corporation's financial statements. The $723/month fees should cover building insurance, common elements, and reserve contributions.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 3 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
Burlington Lifestyle
Burlington offers a balance of urban convenience and suburban tranquility. Growing families appreciate the newer schools and community feel. The GO Train provides reasonable Toronto access. Home values have appreciated steadily as families seek alternatives to Toronto's density and pricing.
