Built by hand. Meant to be lived in. 517 Norfolk St S was built in 1956 by its original owner - a builder who constructed it for himself, detail by detail, with no shortcuts. Nearly seventy years later, the bones still show it: solid brick construction, an oversized attached double garage, and just under an acre of mature, private land in town.The last five years brought real updates, not just a refresh - new kitchen, new windows, new roof, new flooring, fresh paint throughout. The work most buyers dread is already done here.Downstairs, a separate side entrance opens onto a full, open layout with real conversion potential for an in-law suite or income unit. And for anyone who works with their hands, runs a business, or just needs the space - the detached steel workshop is reason enough to book the showing.Two main-floor bedrooms. Hardwood floors throughout. A stone fireplace. A screened front porch built for slow mornings. And a backyard with enough room to expand, build, or simply enjoy it as-is.Homes like this - built once, built right, and cared for since - don't come up often in this market.
