About 4 ELLIS Ave

4 ELLIS Ave is a 2+1-bedroom, 3-bathroom freehold townhouse in Oakdale, St. Catharines, listed for sale at an asking price of $679,900 (MLS® X12476731).

This freehold (no condo fees) bungalow townhome is located in the peaceful and exclusive community of Merritton Commons. This end-unit offers additional space, privacy, and natural light due to its position and extra-wide lot. Joined only at the garage, there is access to the backyard from the garage, sliding doors in the living room, and a side gate. The wrap-around front porch leads into an open-concept layout with 9-foot ceilings, a gas fireplace, and oversized windows. The living and dining areas are wider than standard interior units, providing ample space for both entertaining and daily living. The kitchen features granite countertops, generous storage, and an eat-in breakfast bar. The main floor includes two bedrooms and two bathrooms, with an additional bedroom, den, family room, and bathroom located in the finished lower level. The lower level also includes an unfinished workshop/utility area and a large cold cellar beneath the wrap-around porch for storage. The property is professionally landscaped and well-maintained, reflecting pride of ownership throughout. Located close to a local fire station, which is generally very quiet. Emergency vehicles typically do not activate their sirens on Ellis Avenue, waiting until they reach the main road.
