A Premium Location in Delta West
Located at the base of the Niagara Escarpment, this Hamilton Character Home enjoys a premium position in Delta West, one of the city’s most walkable, vibrant, and historic neighbourhoods. Step outside your door and explore tree-lined streets, scenic trails, and community staples like schools, cafés, and the Ottawa Street shopping district.
And just across the street? The lush 70-acre Gage Park—Hamilton’s green heart. Here, weekend strolls, summer festivals, and year-round recreation await.
Vintage Detail Meets Modern Living
This Hamilton Character Home opens with a bright and spacious foyer that sets the tone for what’s to come. The main level boasts 9-foot ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, and elegant crown moulding—all hallmarks of early-20th-century design. But there’s no shortage of modern updates to make life easier and more beautiful.
The open-concept living and dining areas flow into a fully renovated kitchen featuring quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a brand-new 2024 fridge, and a 2025 stove—perfect for both everyday meals and entertaining. Thoughtfully updated and functional, this is a kitchen that truly connects the home.
An Urban Garden Sanctuary
Open the double patio doors to a new deck and patio area, designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Whether you’re hosting a BBQ, sipping your morning coffee, or relaxing in the evening sun, the fully fenced yard is your personal oasis.
This outdoor space includes:
-
Raised vegetable gardens for farm-to-table freshness
-
A second deck for sunbathing or entertaining
-
A custom shed for added storage or creative space
It’s rare to find a Hamilton Character Home with such a well-designed and low-maintenance backyard. Here, you get beauty and function.
Bedrooms, Bonus Loft & Versatile Living Space
Upstairs, the second floor features two oversized bedrooms with generous closets and abundant natural light. A large 4-piece bathroom with a soaker tub adds a spa-like touch, while a hidden laundry closet makes daily living easy.
Climb to the third floor and you’ll find a versatile loft, currently set up as a family room. Whether you use it as a primary suite, studio, guest room, or home office, this airy space offers endless flexibility and loads of personality.
The partially finished basement adds even more value. It includes a den or office area, a 3-piece bathroom, and excellent storage. And with new oak stairs (2025) and a new A/C system (2021), it’s already prepped for comfort.
