55 Brazil Street St. John's, Newfoundland & Labrador A1C 4V3

$294,900

This is the ultimate downtown ""re-birth."" 55 Brazil Street is a comprehensive, from the studs out reconstruction that far exceeds a standard renovation. With over $120k invested, this 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home perfectly blends historic character—featuring rare 9-foot original ceilings and a preserved hardwood staircase with modern structural integrity. The entire rear addition was torn out and rebuilt with new beams and trusses, and the home has been completely outfitted with new studs, drywall, plaster including R20 insulation and vapour barrier. Inside, the chef’s kitchen shines with custom soft-close cabinetry and a brand-new appliance package along with two full beautifully renovated bathrooms. Natural light floods the space, leading to a private, sun-soaked backyard with a mature tree and immense potential for a signature deck. The interior is finished with premium waterproof and scratch-proof flooring throughout. Practical upgrades include all-new PEX plumbing, new egress windows, a 4-year-old roof, and brand-new gutters to be installed prior to closing. The layout is designed for maximum ROI or family flexibility: the main floor features a spacious bedroom (no closet) with its own private ensuite, while the second level offers three bright bedrooms, including a primary with a direct view of Signal Hill. For added flexibility and storage, the basement features its own separate entrance. This is a Walker’s Paradise: a 5-minute stroll to all things downtown, steps from the pedestrian mall and George Street, and minutes from Sobeys, St. Clare’s, and MUN. This location is a powerhouse for income potential; whether as a long-term rental or a high-demand short-term rental—where summer rates in this prime core location can easily command top dollar. This is a fantastic opportunity in a highly desirable location! (id:55727)
