DEAR BUYERS,
Thank you for your interest in 420 Fares Street in Port Colborne! I am writing to share a bit about the love I have for this home and community, hoping it will soon become the backdrop for new, cherished memories in your life.
Perhaps one of the best things about this home is its proximity to the canal. A quick 5-minute stroll down the street offers a perfect view of its beauty and activity. From the second-floor windows, I’ve loved watching the ships—whether docked in winter or gliding through the canal in the warmer months. It’s a magical sight, especially with the iconic lift bridge in view.
If you're new to the area, you should definitely check out Nickel Beach. Just a five-minute drive away, it’s a slice of paradise with white sandy shores, perfect for windsurfing, swimming, or simply enjoying a picnic. Canal Days at HH Knoll Park is another highlight—an annual festival that brings the community together with live music, delicious food, and fun for all ages. Don’t miss the chance to walk along the Welland Canal and see the ships up close; it’s a fantastic way to spend a weekend afternoon.
The neighbourhood is very quiet and family-friendly, with an elementary school and a playground just steps from the front door. For commuters, the easy highway access is ideal. And for food lovers, the local dining options are stellar—you should be sure to try The Smokin’ Buddha for its globally-inspired dishes and The Lock Wood Fired Pizza for a casual night out.
I wish you the very best in your house hunt and hope you will give this home serious consideration. 420 Fares Street has been a place of love, joy, and countless memories for my family, and I know it has so much to offer its next owners.
Sincerely,
Susan
