208 ARNOLD Street, Kitchener — listed at $560,000. Earn buyer cashback at closing. No catches, just more money in your pocket.
Welcome to 208 Arnold Street, Kitchener! If you've been scrolling past condos and townhomes waiting for something detached to come up in your range, stop here. 208 Arnold Street is a solid 1947 home on a fully fenced 40 x 120 ft lot, and it delivers the three things young families keep asking for and rarely find together: real separation from the neighbours, a backyard the kids and the dog can actually use, and a private driveway that fits 4 vehicles. Inside, three bedrooms are spread across two levels, with hardwood upstairs refinished in 2021 and a main-floor bedroom that works just as well as a home office or nursery. A bay window brings natural light into the main living space. Forced-air gas heat and central air keep it comfortable year-round. Downstairs, the basement is partially finished with a rec room, a dedicated workshop, and a separate laundry area — room to spread out now, and room to grow into later. The backyard is the part that sells itself. A resurfaced deck opens onto mature gardens and a fully fenced yard, with a substantial covered patio for shade and a 10 x 10 shed for the mower, the bikes, and everything else. It's private, established, and ready to enjoy on day one — no landscaping budget required. Location works too — minutes from downtown Kitchener, close to schools, parks, and shopping, with easy access to major routes. What truly sets this home apart is what's already been paid for: a line-by-line record of more than $48,000 in improvements, including furnace 2019, main roof 2020, fencing 2021, driveway 2024, and eavestroughs and porch railings 2025, plus the covered patio, bay window and shed roof. These are the expenses that blindside first-time buyers in their first few years of ownership — and here, they're behind you, with receipts on request. A well-maintained detached home on a quiet established street, with parking, a yard, and the major systems already handled. Book your showing today. (id:60164)
