About this home
Tucked into Fort Erie's sought-after Crescent Park neighbourhood, this 1.5-storey detached home is the kind of first buy or investment that checks the boxes without demanding a renovation budget. Over 1,000 sq ft, 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and original hardwood floors that have been refinished and given room to shine. Updates include: kitchen (2022), central air conditioning (2023), new electrical panel (2025) plus 220V wiring to the attached garage - a real perk if you're thinking EV charging, a workshop, or just serious hobby space. The corner lot gives you extra room to work with, and the backyard is fully fenced and ready for pets, kids, or both. Move-in ready today, with plenty of room to make it yours over time. And the location does a lot of the work: walk to schools and parks, 3 minutes to groceries and shopping, 4 minutes to the QEW and Crescent Beach, 6 minutes to the Peace Bridge for a quick trip across the border. First home, next home, or smart addition to a portfolio, 1217 Orchard Avenue is an opportunity you won't want to pass up.
