What this listing tells us
Welcome to this warm and welcoming 1.5-storey home tucked into one of Peterborough's most walkable, connected neighbourhoods. Whether you're buying your first home or looking to simplify without sacrificing lifestyle, this one just makes sense. Inside, the home offers a bright, easy-flow layout with thoughtful updates throughout. The kitchen has been recently refreshed with new countertops, backsplash, added storage, and a new microwave-giving you a clean, functional space to cook, gather, and settle into daily life. Upstairs features two comfortable bedrooms with brand new carpeting (2026), on the stairs and landing that tie everything together. The lower level has been insulated and improved with new stairs, adding extra usable space and efficiency. Behind the walls, the important upgrades are already done-updated plumbing (galvanized removed), a 200-amp panel, central air, and newer eavestroughs-so you can focus on living, not projects. But what really sets this property apart is the setting. The backyard feels like a hidden retreat in the middle of the city-fully fenced and thoughtfully landscaped with stonework, a deck, and pergola. It's the kind of space where you can unwind at the end of the day and actually hear the calming flow of Jackson Creek nearby. For buyers who love to get outside, this location is hard to beat. You're just steps to the Trans Canada Trail-perfect for biking, running, or walking into town-while still being close to shops, restaurants, and everyday amenities. It's an easy, low-car lifestyle that's becoming harder to find. A home that offers comfort, connection to nature, and convenience-without compromise. Truly is a hidden gem that must be seen to be appreciated!
