Extensively Reconstructed Home with Major Structural and System Updates

One of the most important features of this Duke Street property is the extensive reconstruction completed approximately 15 years ago. The work included replacing the home’s framing, electrical wiring, plumbing, windows, exterior siding and roofing. The foundation was also reinforced, with weeping tile installed as part of the improvements. These substantial updates distinguish the property from an older home that has received only cosmetic renovations. The existing residence combines a traditional two-storey layout with major building components that were renewed during the reconstruction. Buyers can review the details and condition of the completed improvements as part of their assessment of the property, while appreciating the scope of work already undertaken.

Bright Living Room with Hardwood Flooring

The main floor features a bright living room with hardwood flooring, providing a dedicated space for everyday relaxation and entertaining. The room is complemented by a wall-mounted heat pump that provides heating and cooling, adding temperature control to the principal living area. The hardwood flooring continues upstairs, creating a consistent interior finish across the home’s main living levels. The practical layout separates the living room from the adjoining kitchen and dining area while keeping the home’s principal rooms conveniently arranged on the main floor. With 1,064 square feet of finished living space, the residence offers a manageable interior suited to buyers who prefer an established home without an extensive amount of indoor space to maintain.

Functional Kitchen and Dining Area with Included Appliances

The kitchen and dining arrangement is conveniently situated alongside the main living area, creating a straightforward floor plan that makes effective use of the available interior space. Vinyl flooring is also identified among the home’s interior finishes. For buyers considering a smaller detached home, the combined kitchen and dining area offers an uncomplicated layout with the appliances and essential facilities already in place.

Two Upstairs Bedrooms and a Full Bathroom

Both bedrooms are located on the upper level, providing a separate sleeping area away from the main-floor living spaces. Hardwood flooring continues into the two bedrooms, and each bedroom includes closet storage. The home’s full bathroom is also located upstairs, conveniently positioned on the same level as the bedrooms. This arrangement keeps the sleeping accommodation and bathroom together while allowing the main floor to remain dedicated to cooking, dining and everyday living. The two-bedroom configuration is suitable for buyers seeking a smaller primary residence, with the second bedroom offering space for additional household members, visitors or a home office, depending on individual requirements.

Covered Deck and Manageable Outdoor Property

An entryway provides access to a covered deck, creating a sheltered outdoor space for sitting, relaxing or enjoying the warmer months in Summerside. The deck extends the home’s usable living areas outdoors without requiring a large property to maintain. The residence sits on a 0.09-acre lot, offering a compact residential setting for buyers who prefer a smaller yard. The exterior features vinyl siding, and the property includes a paved driveway for off-street parking. With a covered outdoor area, established access and a manageable lot size, the property offers practical exterior features while remaining conveniently located within the city.

Full Unfinished Basement with Laundry and Storage Space

The home includes a full unfinished basement with sufficient height and space for laundry facilities, utilities and additional storage. A washer and dryer are included with the property, along with a water softener. The basement provides a separate area for these household functions, keeping laundry equipment, mechanical systems and stored belongings away from the main living spaces. The foundation incorporates poured concrete and was reinforced during the home’s extensive reconstruction. Although the basement is unfinished and is not presented as additional finished living accommodation, it provides useful space for the practical requirements of maintaining and operating the home.

Electric Heating, Heat Pump and Municipal Services

The residence is equipped with electric heating, including a wall-mounted heat pump and radiators. The heat pump provides heating and cooling, while the radiator system supplies additional heating throughout the home. An air exchanger is also identified among the property’s mechanical features. The home is connected to municipal water and the municipal sewage system, eliminating the need for a private well or septic system. The combination of electric heating, a heat pump and municipal services provides an established utility arrangement for this Summerside residence. Buyers can review the operation and condition of the heating, ventilation and other mechanical equipment when evaluating the property.

This central Summerside location is particularly appealing to buyers who value having everyday amenities and leisure activities close to their residence, with downtown services and waterfront attractions accessible without the need for lengthy drives.

Optional Furnished Purchase for Buyers and Rental Property Owners

The property is being offered with the option of purchasing the home furnished, providing an additional consideration for buyers who would prefer a residence with furnishings already in place. This arrangement may be particularly useful for first-time buyers, purchasers relocating to Summerside or those considering the property for residential rental use. The home’s two-bedroom layout, reconstructed building components and proximity to downtown amenities may also be of interest to buyers evaluating a smaller residential investment property.
