This ranch-style house on the outskirts of Dundas has a finished basement and sits on an unusually-shaped lot, offering an extra buffer between the home and one of its neighbours. The backyard is private and well-treed.
The sellers put the home up for sale last year about a week into the pandemic for a price in the $600,000 range," held offers, and eventually abandoned the idea of selling due to COVID-19, says the Woolcott Team brokerage. The listing went up June 23 and there were two offers the same day, resulting in the $900,000 sale.

This nearly-new Waterdown townhouse is on the end of its row of conjoined homes, so has access to a bit more lawn than the other homes in the row. The modern kitchen features a butcher-block island.
The home was listed on June 18 and received an offer the same day from a member of the realtor's team. The sellers are staying in Waterdown, but moving to a larger home in the area. The buyer was from the Waterdown area. For the price point, it was a shining star and they fell in love," says their agent.

The seller's mom bought this cottagelike bungalow in 1996 to support her widow's pension after her husband died. The seller bought it from his mom in 2001, living there for years before moving in with his partner in Burlington. After renting it out for several years, the owner recently decided to sell.
The home had been renovated over the years to feature new windows, roof, flooring, kitchen cabinets and bathroom updates. The unfinished basement has high ceilings and a separate entrance, so could potentially be a second unit. The yard, although small, showcases a lovely garden," says realtor Kathryn Smiley.
