New ListingBacking directly onto the park in the historic Mary Allen neighbourhood, this updated bungalow delivers a rare parkside lifestyle. Single-story homes are a scarcity in this established community, making this residence a standout choice for anyone seeking seamless main-floor living alongside an immediate green space connection. The main floor has been completely refreshed (2026) with crisp blonde flooring, contemporary paint, and a beautifully renovated custom bathroom. Designed for a spa-like experience, this bath features a floating wood vanity and a glass walk-in rain shower outfitted with integrated body jets and a handheld setting. The bright, eat-in kitchen benefits from vaulted ceilings and an interior pass-through window opening directly to an expansive living room addition. Flooded with natural light, this primary living zone features large windows and sliding glass doors that step out onto a tiered back deck. Major infrastructure is fully modernized, highlighted by a new furnace (2024) and a 200-amp electrical service upgrade complete with a dedicated EV charger (2022). Downstairs, a partially finished basement provides layout flexibility, offering extensive storage alongside a modern second bathroom complete with a deep soaking tub and herringbone tile accents. The rear yard serves as a private oasis with an elevated deck, perimeter fencing, and a premium Bunkie Life bunkie engineered for year-round use with hydro and internet. Anchored by a wall-mounted eco-friendly liquid ethanol fireplace, this detached log-cabin sanctuary with a cozy sleeping loft is a sophisticated four-season home office, art studio, or premier hangout. Amenities include a single-car garage with a convenient backyard walkout and two additional driveway spaces. Located steps from trails, independent cafes, and premium Uptown Waterloo amenities, it perfectly pairs classic character with functional updates. (id:13843)
