The brief
About 52 Fairmount Ave
52 Fairmount Ave is a 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom detached house in Kirkendall, Hamilton, listed for sale at an asking price of $1,124,999 (MLS® X14104824).
Welcome to 52 Fairmount, a beautifully updated character home in one of Hamilton's most sought-after neighbourhoods. The home has been tastefully renovated while still keeping the details that make it special, including the original hardwood floors, trim, pocket doors, and plenty of classic character throughout. The main floor has a great flow and features a beautifully renovated kitchen that works just as well for everyday living as it does for entertaining. Whether you're cooking Sunday dinner, having friends over, or just enjoying a quiet night at home, it's a space that feels warm, comfortable, and easy to live in. Just beyond the kitchen, a bright addition gives you even more living space and walks out to the beautifully landscaped backyard, updated in 2021 and perfect for summer dinners, entertaining, or relaxing outside. Upstairs, you'll find another renovated bathroom and an oversized primary bedroom that was created by combining two original bedrooms. If you need the extra space, it could easily be converted back, giving you the option for four bedrooms on this level. The finished third-floor loft adds even more flexibility, with two separate spaces currently used as an additional living area and bedroom. It would also make a great home office, guest area, teen retreat, or studio. Outside, the private backyard and detached garage add even more value, with extra parking, storage, and space to enjoy. Just steps from Locke Street and minutes to James Street South, St. Joseph's Hospital, McMaster University, parks, trails, transit, and Highway 403, you're close to some of the best that Hamilton has to offer. With loads of character, thoughtful updates, and flexible living space across three finished levels, 52 Fairmount is a great opportunity to own in one of Hamilton's most established and desirable neighbourhoods.
