Property Description

Welcome to 282 Swanston Avenue, a brick bungalow on a private, park-like lot on a quiet street bordering the canal in Peterborough's sought-after East City. The timber frame front porch is your first clue: heavy posts, honest joinery, built by someone who knows what they're doing. The owner spent twenty years as a custom home contractor specializing in historical restoration, and their hand shows throughout, in the trim, the finish work, the details you do not get in a standard build. The bright main level offers an inviting living room, a renovated kitchen, two bedrooms and a full bathroom, plus a separate dining room with a patio door opening onto the screened-in porch. An air source heat pump handles both heating and cooling, with gas and electric both available. Then there is summer. Morning coffee on that porch, the yard quiet under mature trees and established gardens. By afternoon everyone has drifted out to the deck and down to the in-ground pool, with the pool house right there: a pool room, change room, storage room, and a large workshop, all steps from the water. . Long evenings, the barbecue going, everyone in the water until the light goes. Beside the driveway, a large craftsman-built shed with loft adds more storage. The finished lower level has a LEGAL BASEMENT APARTMENT with a separate entrance, large ground level windows and pot lighting throughout. One bedroom, full bathroom, kitchen, family room with gas fireplace, separate laundry and storage, plus up to two parking spaces. A built-in mortgage helper, or in-law suite. Everything is walkable. Groceries, schools, the shops and restaurants of East City, plus Nichols Oval Park, trails and greenspace along the River. Downtown Peterborough and Trent University are minutes away. If you have been looking for a high quality, impeccably maintained home with a rentable second unit and a pool, on one of East City's quietest streets, 282 Swanston Avenue could be the one.
