Property Description
For more info on this property, please click the Brochure button.Welcome to Ivy Cottage, a timeless 1929 brick home nestled on a rare double lot in one of Windsors most beloved Riverside neighbourhoods. With 80 ft of frontage, mature trees, ivy-covered brick, and lush landscaping, this property blends historic charm with urban convenience. Located just seven houses from Riverside Dr. and two blocks from the Peace Fountain, you're steps from riverfront trails and Wyandotte St. shopping. Inside, the 3-bed, 2-bath home showcases original hardwood floors, vintage wainscoting, and classic detailing throughout. The main floor offers two bedrooms (or office), a full bath, bright sunroom, and formal dining/living spaces. Upstairs, a second bath, bedroom, and bonus flex nook make an ideal retreat or creative studio. The partially finished basement includes laundry, a den/guest room, and a large unfinished space with workshop and utility areas. Radiant baseboard/radiator heat and electric units in select rooms keep the home cozy year-round. Outside, the interlocking brick driveway fits 3 cars, and the courtyard-style front entry is framed by an original decorative iron fence, one section still bears a piece of leather once used to tether horses. A rustic barn-door shed with potting station adds charm and function. Zoning is RD1.2, and the 5,656 sq ft lot may offer severance potential (buyer to verify). 240 Prado Place falls within a designated Heritage Streetscape. What makes the 200 block of Prado a cultural landscape worthy of preservation is its unique blend of right-of-way width, mature vegetation, historic streetlamps, and consistent building setbacks. In 1988, the block was awarded a Civic Beautification honour a reflection of the pride, care, and community spirit that still thrive here today.
