About this home

Welcome to 872 Lovett Street in London, Ontario, a charming, nearly century-old bungalow situated on a quiet corner in a family-friendly pocket, close to parks, schools, shopping, transit, and easy access to the 401. Built in 1926, this thoughtfully cared-for home blends cozy curb appeal with smart, modern updates, making it ideal for young couples seeking their first home or investors looking for a turn-key addition to their portfolio. With 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, this property offers both space and functionality for today's buyers. Inside, you will find a bright and welcoming living room alongside three comfortable bedrooms, all recently refreshed for a timeless and modern feel. The heart of the home, the kitchen, and the full bathroom were completely updated in 2022 with new countertops, sink, flooring, and fixtures, creating a space designed for both style and practicality. That same year, the basement was renovated and includes a versatile den space, making the lower level perfect for cozy gatherings, a home office, or a guest space, featuring its own separate entrance. In 2023, further essential upgrades were completed, including a brand-new 200-amp electrical panel, new appliances, backyard fence replacement, and the installation of a damp-proof membrane to ensure long-term comfort and peace of mind. 872 Lovett Street seamlessly combines classic charm with modern efficiency, all within a peaceful and well-connected London location. Whether you are launching into homeownership or expanding your rental portfolio, this property offers dependable comfort, strong investment potential, and the perfect balance of character and convenience.
