About this home
Registered as a Two-Unit Dwelling with the City of Oshawa and situated on a 50 by 122 foot lot in a great neighbourhood with 2 furnaces and 2 Hot Water Tanks, welcome to 858 Grierson St., Oshawa! The main floor of this brick bungalow offers charming arched doorways and a wide east facing, front window to let the morning light flood the living and dining rooms. Separately laid out at the back of the home are two inviting bedrooms just off the hall with access to the updated bathroom. The kitchen was also redone with quartz counters, a tiled backsplash, new stainless fridge and range, and a window over the sink. The 4 piece bath was rebuilt with a new tub, tiled surround, vanity, toilet, lighting and floor. The lower unit has its own side entrance and stays bright under the many above-grade windows. It holds a 22 foot living and dining area, its own kitchen, a bedroom, a second 4 piece bath finished to the same standard, and the 2 units are finished with a laundry room. Two gas furnaces, one per level, installed 2014/2015. Roof 2015. 2 hot water tanks as well, which are owned. Luxury vinyl plank runs through both levels, the paint is fresh, and the light fixtures are new throughout. A private drive runs the full length of the house offering four spaces in total. The yard behind it is fenced on three sides with mature trees along the back and a concrete patio for evenings watching the sunset at the end of a great day. Quiet centrally located street, walkable to Beau Valley Public School and North Oshawa Park, minutes to Ritson Rd N and the Costco plaza it offers, with Lakeridge Health Oshawa close by, and both the Oshawa Centre and Highway 401 a short drive south. This is the perfect home to get into the market with, living upstairs while renting out the basement, or rent out both!
