I have listed a new property at 3408 Victoria AVE in Regina.
Built during the Roaring Twenties, this home reflects the joy and optimism of the era. Nestled on a tree-lined avenue named for the Great Queen Victoria, the 1400-sq foot two-story (including sun room) is located in one of Regina's most educated neighbourhoods. The emphasis on education is seen in the area's newly-built Connaught School, nearby Crescent School and Sheldon-Williams High School. Professors and poets live side by side in Cathedral's culturally-rich neighbourhood. Beautiful architecture also graces the neighbourhood, including the trio of 13th Avenue churches; Holy Rosary Cathedral, Westminster Presbyterian and Sacred Heart Academy. Many Cathedral homes are also considered architecturally significant and included in the Regina Heritage Walking Tours. This home's close proximity to the 13th Avenue Shops provides quick and easy access to quirky boutiques, coffee houses and restaurants as well as banks, insurance offices and a large, newly-renovated grocery store.
You'll have lots of time to enjoy the area as this home's recent and extensive renovations renders its maintenance minimal; new furnace, on-demand water heater, updated plumbing/wiring, new windows(except for the character-keeping front ones) refinished basement, granite counter tops in the new kitchen, tiled floors in the three bathrooms, and freshly painted interior and exterior.
Still, the home's character is honoured with original hardwood floors, gracefully-sloped ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace. Ceiling medallions with vintage chandeliers reflect elegance and appeal. The sun room provides quiet solitude to enjoy the south-facing light and view of magnificent trees—not just on both sides of the street but in the middle boulevard as well. 3408 Victoria Avenue is a rare opportunity to experience old world charm and convenient renos in the culturally-rich Cathedral neighbourhood.
