461 Empire Avenue St. John's, Newfoundland & Labrador A1E 1W6
$280,000
Located in one of St. John's most central and in-demand pockets, 461 Empire Avenue sits minutes from the Health Sciences Centre, St. Clares Hospital and Memorial University, with the Mundy Pond walking trail right out back, St. Teresa's School, two supermarkets, and a rec centre all within walking distance. This is a property built for flexibility. It suits a healthcare or university professional wanting an easy commute, a parent looking for a safe, walkable home base for a child starting at MUN, an investor eyeing one of the city's strongest rental markets, or a hands-on buyer who wants serious garage space to match. Taken back to the studs and rebuilt in 2005, this 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home has been freshly painted throughout in 2026, with a brand new bathroom (2026) and new roof (2025), so the big-ticket items are already done. Upstairs offers a bright living room and a spacious eat-in kitchen that's the true heart of the home, along with a full 3-piece bath finished top to bottom. The larger bedroom is downstairs, along with a rec room with bar area and storage. Thanks to its own separate entrance, the lower level offers income potential, whether as a mortgage helper, or a private space for a student while the other level is rented out. Outside, a huge fenced yard leads to a detached 16x24 insulated and wired garage with drive-through access, ideal for a home mechanic, woodworker, contractor, or anyone who needs serious workshop or storage space. Combined with ample driveway parking in a neighborhood where campus and hospital parking is at a premium, this property offers an income angle few others in the area can match. Updated electrical (100 amp service) and vinyl windows round out this move-in-ready home. This isn't a typical family layout. It's a smart, flexible property for buyers who see the bigger picture.
