Welcome to 145 Blackburn Avenue, a beautifully updated, light-filled century home set on a premium corner lot in the heart of Sandy Hill. Located within the highly sought-after Francojeunesse and Lisgar Collegiate Institute catchment, this exceptional west-facing semi-detached home offers refined living with an abundance of natural light from three exposures. Thoughtfully curated, the home seamlessly blends period details with a modern open-concept design. The main level features an elegant combined living and dining room anchored by a gas fireplace with a stunning antique oak surround, flowing effortlessly into a renovated kitchen with updated appliances and a striking butcher block island designed for both function and gathering. A patio door extends the living space outdoors, creating a seamless connection to the private garden. Offering 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, the home also includes a versatile den or office that can easily serve as a fourth bedroom. The third-floor loft is a standout, reimagined as a stunning primary retreat with a dramatic south-facing dormer, built-in bookcases, and a full ensuite bath, creating a private sanctuary within the home. The outdoor setting is truly rare for the area. A 100 ft south-facing garden borders this urban oasis, featuring terraced landscaping, an interlock patio, and an expansive deck, all framed by a mature cedar hedge that provides both privacy and shade, perfect for entertaining or quiet enjoyment. Additional highlights include a deeded garage shared with 143 Blackburn and an unfinished, dry basement offering workshop space, laundry, and generous storage. This meticulously updated, turnkey home offers a rare retreat in a green and tranquil family-oriented corner of Sandy Hill steps away from Strathcona Park, neighbourhood cafés and restaurants-a residential haven in the city.
