Description
STOP RENTING OR SETTLING FOR A CONDO — THIS COULD BE YOUR CHANCE TO OWN A DETACHED HOME! Here is an opportunity that doesn't come along often. Welcome to 1280 Eleanor Avenue, a three-bedroom bungalow located on an exceptional 71' x 120' lot in one of Cambridge's established neighbourhoods, where large properties, mature streets and pride of ownership are the norm. For decades, this home has been occupied by the same owner. That kind of longevity speaks volumes about the neighbourhood and the community. Many of the surrounding homes have also been lovingly maintained by long-term owners, creating a streetscape that is established, welcoming and exceptionally well cared for. Yes, this home is dated. But that may be exactly what makes it such an exciting opportunity. Behind the original finishes is a solid, well-maintained home that remains in very good condition and completely livable. The home is now vacant, so you can take your time planning the updates—or move in and improve it over time. For a first-time buyer, this is an opportunity to take a different path into home ownership. Why start with a townhouse or condo when you can own a detached home with a large private lot? Make improvements at your own pace, create the home you've always wanted and build equity along the way. The 71-foot frontage and 120-foot depth provide a generous canvas for your future plans, while the mature neighbourhood offers something that new developments simply can't replicate: established homes, mature surroundings and decades of pride of ownership. Whether you're a first-time buyer looking for an affordable way into the detached-home market, an investor recognizing the potential, or someone looking for a property to renovate and make your own, 1280 Eleanor Avenue is worth a closer look. Vacant and available for short-notice showings. Quick closing available. Don't overlook this one because it needs updating. Look at the lot. Look at the neighbourhood. Look at the potential.

Financial Summary
Cash Needed at Closing
Minimum down payment: 5% on the first $500,000, 10% on the portion up to $1.5M, 20% at/above $1.5M. 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. Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
