This charming home is a rare find in Saskatoon's character neighbourhoods. Not only has it been thoroughly modernized, but it also boasts a spacious yard that is truly an oasis. With its prime location only three blocks away from elementary and high schools and a major bus route, this home is perfect for families and commuters alike. Upon entering, you will be greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The house has undergone extensive upgrades during the current owner's 24-year tenure, including modern electrical and plumbing systems, a 200-amp electrical service, and a large capacity water heater. Both the kitchen and bathroom have also been updated to provide modern amenities while maintaining the home's character. The yard is one of the largest on the entire block and has been fully landscaped to include a stunning Japanese-style water garden, complete with a waterfall and a 4' deep pond that is ideal for Koi fish. The pergola, surrounded by raised garden boxes and covered with lattice, is the perfect spot to take a nap in a hammock or entertain guests on a concrete patio adjoining the back of the house. The formal dining room and living room offer ample space for entertaining, while both larger-than-average bedrooms are located upstairs, opening up the entire main floor for company. The master bedroom was originally two smaller rooms, but it could be easily changed back into a three-bedroom home. All windows upstairs and all opening windows on the main floor have been replaced with modern high-efficiency casements. Finally, the full basement provides a tremendous amount of storage or a blank canvas to create whatever you desire, as it is currently unfinished. If you're looking for an affordable character home on a quiet street in a safe neighbourhood that requires no renovations and features a backyard oasis, this hidden gem is waiting for you.
