Description
Welcome to 249 Rittenhouse Road, a solid brick and vinyl raised bungalow in a well-established Kitchener neighbourhood. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom detached home offers over 1,500 sq ft of living space, full of charm and ready for its next chapter. Bring your vision and make it your own. The main floor features a bright, open living and dining area with large front windows, a kitchen with plenty of oak cabinetry, three bedrooms and a full bathroom. The layout flows well and gives you a great canvas to personalize, from a fresh coat of paint to a full redesign. The lower level adds even more space, with a large recreation room centred around a classic brick fireplace, a second bathroom, and a bonus room that could become a home office, gym, hobby room or workshop. There's also plenty of storage. Out back, the spacious backyard is a true highlight. Mature trees provide shade and privacy, with a deck area ready for summer barbecues, room for kids and pets to play, and space for gardens. An attached garage and private driveway add everyday convenience. The location is hard to beat. You're just down the street from the Country Hills Community Centre, with its gym, basketball courts and winter skating rink, and close to schools, parks, trails, shopping and quick expressway access. Whether you're a first-time buyer, a growing family or an investor looking for a home with potential, this is an opportunity worth seeing. Book your showing today. (id:63161)

Stress test: OSFI's minimum qualifying rate, the greater of contract rate + 2% or 5.25% — this is what lenders require you to qualify at, not what you'll actually pay. Closing costs are a typical-range estimate, not a quote — actual legal fees vary. Land Transfer Tax is the Ontario provincial schedule, before any first-time buyer refund; only the City of Toronto charges a municipal land transfer tax on top, so none applies in the areas this site covers (Ontario Ministry of Finance, ontario.ca/document/land-transfer-tax, as of October 28, 2026). Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
