Ready to fall for a home with some real character? 1201 Government Avenue is the kind of property that gets your imagination going. This charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home sits on a half-acre corner lot right across from Centennial Park, offering vintage charm, strong bones, high ceilings and natural light aplenty. The home itself has been lovingly maintained with key updates — newer furnace, hot water tank, modern windows, and a roof that still has years to give. Step outside and you’ll find mature trees and shrubs creating a sense of privacy that’s hard to come by these days. There’s even a shop for your projects and a guest house with water already connected (sewer’s the last piece of the puzzle). And here’s where it gets really interesting: this parcel was previously approved for four city lots — so whether you’re a developer, a visionary, or someone who just loves extra elbow room, the opportunities are endless. Enjoy it as is with space for the kids, the dogs, and the garden of your dreams… or get ready to break ground on something new right in the heart of Merritt. Big potential. Great location. Endless possibilities. (id:2493)
