About this home

An exceptional home with opportunity to match. Offered at $888,000, 1523 Dunedin Crescent gives buyers the flexibility to move in and enjoy or purchase with a proposed seller leaseback at $5,000 per month for 24 months. That represents $120,000 in potential gross rental income over the initial term. Prefer to make it your own? The property is also available without the leaseback, with vacant possession on closing. Proudly maintained by its original owners, this all-brick four-bedroom home offers a thoughtfully designed living space on a quiet Oshawa crescent. Double entry doors welcome you into a thoughtful open-concept layout featuring hardwood and ceramic flooring, a striking wood staircase, and a kitchen and living area filled with natural light. The breakfast area opens onto a wood deck and fully fenced backyard, creating an inviting setting for morning coffee, summer dinners, and time outdoors. The spacious primary retreat features a walk-in closet and private five-piece ensuite, complemented by three additional well-sized bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom with an upgraded shower. A main-floor powder room, double garage, and kitchen reverse-osmosis drinking water system add everyday convenience. Quiet and friendly neighbourhood where kids can walk to schools and shopping is close by. This home combines comfortable family living with a flexible purchase opportunity. Move in or explore the seller leaseback - the choice is yours.
