About this home
Bright, welcoming and thoughtfully finished! Welcome to 12 Elson Drive, Guelph, a detached raised bungalow with an attached double garage and convenient direct access into the home. Lovingly maintained by the same owners since 2015, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home is ready for its next chapter. While the Sellers hadn't originally planned on moving, they've found their next home, creating an exciting opportunity for the next owners to make this wonderful property their own. One of the first things you'll notice is the abundance of natural light streaming through the large windows, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. Tastefully finished and featuring many newer windows, an updated kitchen and ever-so-handy-automated window shades on the front windows, this home combines comfort, style and everyday convenience. The spacious primary bedroom offers a walk-in closet and private ensuite, while three additional bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests or a home office. Step out from the kitchen onto the large deck, perfect for summer barbecues (and there's a gas hook up) and entertaining, overlooking a fully fenced backyard with no rear neighbours-a wonderful setting to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Conveniently located near Edinburgh Road South and Municipal Street, with access to local parks, schools, shopping and everyday amenities. With the Sellers ready to move on to their next chapter, this is a fantastic opportunity to make this well-cared-for home your own!
