Description

Welcome to 88 Chestnut Avenue, where timeless charm meets beautifully curated modern living. Completely renovated in 2022, this exceptional home has been thoughtfully transformed from top to bottom, offering a rare blend of character, comfort, and contemporary style. From the moment you arrive, the home's inviting presence and great curb appeal set the tone for what awaits inside. The heart of the home is the stunning designer kitchen, featuring sleek cabinetry, stylish finishes, and quality appliances including a GE stove, Broan exhaust hood, Samsung dishwasher, and Samsung washer and dryer. Every update has been completed with care, while major mechanical improvements such as a Lennox high-efficiency furnace and air conditioner, along with a Rinnai tankless water heater, provide peace of mind and everyday efficiency. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has been reimagined to include a spacious walk-in closet or private home office, creating a flexible retreat to suit your lifestyle. The second bedroom has also been beautifully updated, while the bathroom has been completely reconfigured and relocated to the second floor for enhanced function and flow. New vinyl flooring throughout adds warmth, continuity, and a fresh modern finish. Outside, the home continues to impress with new siding, four new windows, and a refinished and stained front porch and deck that further enhance its undeniable charm. A fully fenced backyard offers privacy and outdoor enjoyment, while front parking and rear laneway access add rare convenience in this vibrant central location. Set in the heart of Hamilton Centre, just steps to Tim Hortons Field, Jimmy Thompson Memorial Pool, Bernie Morelli Recreation Centre, schools, shopping, transit, and more, this is a home that effortlessly combines charm, style, and everyday practicality.
