More recently, the home has been thoughtfully updated to reflect the warm, inviting farmhouse style you’ll enjoy today.

Please note: There is a large construction site to the north of the property which may contribute noise and dust during work hours.

Easy to get ahold of by email if there is anything you need.

This was a very blue-collar area at the edge of the river that was heavily impacted by severe flooding in 2008. Within a few blocks are expansive grassy areas and large grain elevators, walking trails and a karaoke bar, restaurants, a corner grocery store and theatre, gardens, parks and multi-family developments.

There is significant construction happening across the street, though it is quiet during the night and on weekends.

The stairway between the floors is steep and not safe for very young children or those with mobility issues.
