Heritage charm meets modern luxury in this beautifully restored character bungalow nestled on a tree-lined street in the heart of prestigious Elbow Park. Set beneath a canopy of mature elm trees on a beautifully landscaped 50' x 128' lot, this exceptional residence has been thoughtfully renovated to preserve its timeless architectural character while introducing modern comfort and sophistication. A welcoming front veranda invites you inside, where rich original woodwork, quarter-sawn oak hardwood flooring, custom-milled fir floors, and beautifully preserved heritage details create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
