This is the story of a family home that aged exactly the way the best ones do - quietly, steadily, and with real care. Once it was in the family, no one ever felt the need to leave. And when something needed attention, it was handled properly: electrical, heating system, windows, steps, the back deck. The comfort and character stayed intact; the essentials moved with the times. Now this well-kept home is ready for its next chapter in the classic Rockingham community, close to the peninsula and every daily convenience. The property sits on a large, level, south-facing lot - an easy space for kids, gardens, or summer evenings outdoors. Inside, the house feels clean, bright, and clearly loved. You arrive right in the heart of the home: an eat-in kitchen with flat-panel cabinets, plenty of room for a full dining table, and access to the center-hall layout. The living room overlooks the front yard and features real hardwood floors, warm and welcoming. Down the hall, the full bath and three bedrooms are all surprisingly roomy for the era, with classic finishes - wooden doors, wall panels - that may feel dated on paper but, in person, are perfectly move-in ready. Any updates here are purely cosmetic and on your timeline. The lower level adds a generous second living space: a rec room tucked away from the main floor, ideal for relaxing. Laundry, a simple one-piece bath, workshop, storage, and utility space complete the level. And then there’s the back deck - truly exceptional - showcasing how well indoor and outdoor living can blend on this property. For anyone wanting to live in the city without stretching the budget, this is a home that makes sense: honest, cared for, and ready for its next family.
