DEAR BUYERS,
Perhaps the most wonderful thing about this home is how it offers the best of both worlds: the peace and quiet of a friendly street and the vibrant energy of being just steps away from downtown St. Catharines. You’ll enjoy taking evening strolls through the neighbourhood, greeting neighbours walking their dogs or tending to their gardens, and then heading downtown for dinner or a live performance.
If you're new to the area, you should definitely check out Montebello Park for its summer festivals, St. Paul Street for its amazing dining and live music, and the FirstOntario Performing Arts Centre and Meridian Centre for top-notch entertainment and sports. For a cozy coffee break, Pique-Nique and De la Terre are local gems.
This home is in a prime location with easy access to schools, the public library, and Fourth Avenue’s shopping district. And being so close to highways for commuting means you have easy access to Niagara Falls, Niagara-on-the-Lake, and the many attractions and wineries that make this region so special.
We wish you the very best on your house hunt and hope that you will give 7 Chaplin Avenue serious consideration. We know it will bring you so much joy.
Sincerely,
Tracey & Les
