STORYBOOK CHARM WITH SPACE, PRIVACY, AND PRIME UPTOWN LIVING! Welcome to this rare 4+ bedroom, 2.5 bath detached home tucked at the end of a quiet dead end street in the heart of Uptown Waterloo. With timeless curb appeal and a thoughtful addition that adds space without losing charm, this home is a beautiful blend of character and modern updates inside and out. Step into a bright and functional layout featuring updated electrical including a new panel, modern plumbing, HVAC upgrades, solid 3/4 inch white ash hardwood flooring, and curated finishes throughout. The main floor offers an open and inviting flow with multiple spaces to gather or unwind, including a cozy sunroom plus a dedicated wired home office for those working from home. The granite coffee bar, updated lighting and trim, and quality details elevate the everyday experience. Upstairs, the primary suite features its own private balcony with French doors, your own peaceful treetop escape. Three additional bedrooms are generously sized, with a bonus flex room on the lower level perfect for a home gym, playroom, or creative space. Outside, the large backyard is a private oasis complete with three separate seating areas, a pergola, custom decks, and a hot tub for relaxing or entertaining. The garage is fully insulated and finished as a workshop, and the concrete driveway includes dual Level 2 EV chargers. What truly sets this home apart is the location. You are just steps to all the best of Uptown, including restaurants, cafes, Waterloo Park, trails, top schools, the LRT, and both universities, yet uniquely nestled against city owned greenspace on two sides for rare privacy and serenity. It feels like your own secret hideaway in the heart of the city. This is a turnkey home with soul in a location that is hard to beat. Come experience the best of Uptown without compromise.
