Why Buy New When You Can Renovate for Less?!

My listing 29 Fishermans rd, Witless bay has just been reduced $10,000 bringing it down to $149,900 which is an awesome deal if you can have an open mind! So I thought I would hop on here and show you my vision for this property!

First here are some photos of the property:

The house is 2040 sq ft and sitting on a large, mature lot (148X158X145X15). Comparable brand new homes in the area go up to about $330,000

This home has great bones and with some TLC you can have a home that looks like it is brand new, still coming up well under what you would pay for a new home in a subdivision.

The main floor has a ton of natural light and a great layout!

Design wise - the changes I would make to the interior here would be to start from fresh - why not, the price is right!

I would take it down to the studs, remove the flooring, remove the stucco ceiling, add new drywall with light paint colours and add new light laminate flooring for extra durability.

The kitchen would be my favourite part! It leads out to the back porch, so I would try to have that space opened up to allow for more cabinets. Here are a few photos of some kitchen styles that would be just beautiful.

In the living room a beautiful ship lapped fireplace would be perfect to complete the new style.

Of course you can still move on in and do any upgrading you wish in time, but there are options when purchasing to such as the Purchase +. You can get your mortgage amount plus the amount for improvements on the property.

At the price of $149,900, you have so many options! If you aren't from the area, see my previous blog post here highlighting more of what Witless bay has to offer.
