Brick bungalow with many improvements near schools

Reside on Russell Street
By Mark Schadenberg
256 Russell St, Woodstock
MLS: 72246
Asking: $209,900
Improving a home can sometimes be discovering the correct mix.
It truly can be a bit of this and a bit of that.
Too much oregano, however, can ruin a recipe.
Not straying too far from my point, I hope.
The new listing I have on Russell Street is worth dashing to – a good dash of this and that.
The lifetime steel roof and replaced windows just begin the list of exterior improvements. The back wood deck is 20’ x 14’ and is like new. To complete this lumbering work, both the front porch and side step have also recently been re-built completely, and all three exterior insulated doors are newer models.
All homes need a good amount of privacy and this brick bungalow delivers with its treed backyard and overall dimensions of 51’ x 165’ (Survey is available).
Inside, the dining room to the left of the front door could certainly be converted back to a third bedroom.
Where you see carpeting on main floor – there is hardwood underneath.
The 4pc bathroom has been renovated also with a soaker tub and newer vanity, plus ceramic tile.
The eat-in kitchen is functional with newer counters and an expanded pantry shelf.
In the lower level, you could say it’s ideal for home theatre – watching the Habs trounce the Leafs. (You will note a lot of Canadiens memorabilia) The recroom runs the full width of the house or 30 feet. The laundry room is drywalled with a convenient drop ceiling as it’s directly below the kitchen. There is also a newer 3pc bathroom (with shower) and a den-office. The basement truly is fully finished.
The locale is ideal for a family as house is about one block from both Southside School and St. Patrick’s – both elementary schools.
If you need to travel a short distance for work – the 401 / 403 is nearby.
Russell Street in this section is level as the street does have quite a hill about a block away.
Conveniently closeby are both Southside Park and the community complex. Southside features an aquatics centre (fancy name for indoor pool), an all-inclusive playground, lawn bowling, skateboard park, toboggan hill and lots of green space for picnics or slo-pitch.
The community complex has a recipe list of two arenas, gymnastics centre, two soccer pitches, two ball diamonds, and our local Fanshawe College campus.
Call me today about viewing 256 Russell St., or any other MLS listed property in Oxford County.
