In the Heart of Snowdon

Just listed, a spacious ground-floor co-property in the heart of NDG's Snowdon neighbourhood.
Steps to multi-culti and vibrant Queen Mary Rd. and an easy seven-minute walk to the Snowdon metro station, 4956 Earnscliffe Ave., offers more than 1,600-square feet of living space over its ground floor and finished basement.


A classic Snowdon property, it features hardwood floors throughout, an ornamental fireplace, open kitchen and dining room, two bedrooms up and a main bathroom completely remodelled in 2012.


The basement was completely remodelled in 2012, with new insulation, flooring, plumbing, lighting and room divisions. There's a family room, two bedrooms or a bedroom and office and a spacious full bathroom with stand-alone shower and tub, as well as the washer and dryer.


Soon the backyard will be in its full glory, with the lilacs and tulips in bloom and the shade trees in full leaf. Until then, use your imagination. The backyard is for the exclusive use of the 4956 Earnscliffe.


Substantial sums have been invested in renovations and improvements since 2010. They include a new roof (2015), new windows and doors (2014) a french drain around the entire foundation (2012) and new front and back balconies (2016 and 2017).

This is an undivided co-ownership property, financed through the National Bank. A 20% down payment is required. 4956 Earnscliffe represents 52 per cent of the property as a whole and thus is responsible for 52 per cent of the taxes and 52 per cent of the building insurance. Heating and electricity are separate.

The asking price is $509,000.
