Tucked away on a quiet street in Carling Heights, this charming two bedroom bungalow is proof that great things come in smaller packages. Full of character and vintage charm, it's the kind of home that feels welcoming the moment you walk in. The true showstopper is the backyard. Beautifully landscaped and thoughtfully designed, it feels like your own private garden with winding paths, mature greenery, and several cozy spots to sit, relax, or entertain. Three detached outbuildings offer endless flexibility. Whether you need a workshop, art studio, home office, yoga space, hobby room, or simply extra storage, you'll have plenty of options to make the space your own. Inside, the second bedroom opens through patio doors to a covered patio overlooking a sunken hot tub, creating a peaceful spot to unwind. (The hot tub is included in as-is condition, as the current owners have never used it.) Downstairs, the finished basement features a spacious rec room, full bathroom, second kitchen, and a separate entrance, offering excellent flexibility for extended family, guests, or future possibilities. Additional updates include a new furnace (2025) and a durable steel roof. Outside, you'll appreciate the beautifully landscaped front yard, single car garage, and parking for multiple vehicles. If you've been looking for a home with personality and an outdoor space that's truly something special, this Carling Heights gem is one you won't want to miss. Seller has never lived in the house so it is being sold in "as is" condition with no representations or warranties.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $641/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 London East'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.
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.
Efficient Living
At 700 sqft, this is a more compact space. The upside: lower utility bills, less maintenance, and easier cleaning. Consider how you'll use the space - built-in storage, multi-functional furniture, and good organization become important. Great for singles, couples, or those who prefer a low-maintenance lifestyle.
