One of a kind. Irreplaceable. And ready to enjoy. Set on a full acre of treed, park-like land in the heart of St. John’s, this 1945 character home offers a rare blend of privacy, scale, and timeless craftsmanship. From the hand-cut bevelled glass porch to original trims, woodwork, and horsehair plaster walls, the home reflects an era when quality mattered — and it still does. Offering 4,000 sq ft of flexible living space, the main floor includes a formal dining room that opens to the pool and backyard, a large kitchen with patio doors to the garden, and a main floor primary bedroom with ensuite (currently used as a den). The adjoined living and family rooms feature fireplaces and original hardwood, while oversized windows frame your private, tree-lined sanctuary. Upstairs offers the potential for four large bedrooms, plus an adjoining sitting area and unique tunnel-style storage. The developed basement is a blank slate — ideal for a gym, studio, rec room, or multigenerational suite. Outdoors, enjoy a separate treed garden area perfect for entertaining or relaxing, and a substantial 18x33 pool with a new $10,000 liner. The property includes two driveways (one freshly paved in June 2025), garage access, and ample parking for 6+ vehicles. Walk to Bowring Park, downtown St. John’s, Village Mall, and major bus routes Minutes from MUN, Health Science, Janeway, and St. Mary’s Elementary Restaurants, cafes, shops, and services all nearby — yet your backyard feels like a private park Recent upgrades: New PEX plumbing (2025) Premium roof with ice shield protection (2020) Water booster, window updates Electrical inspection completed (April 2025) Entire exterior freshly painted This home isn’t for everyone — and that’s exactly why it’s special. If you’re searching for space, privacy, character, and convenience in one rare property, 300 Topsail Road is ready to welcome you home! (id:57919)
