Welcome to 38 Stirling Avenue North! This classic 2+ story home offers over 1700 square feet of living space as well as flexibility, comfort, and income potential, just steps to all that Downtown Kitchener has to offer. Previously a LEGAL DUPLEX with duplex zoning, this home has recently been updated in 2026 and is currently being offered as a spacious single-family home. From the welcoming covered front porch you can step inside to the foyer where you will find new LVP flooring through the entrance, living and dining room. Walkout from the dining room to the composite deck and fenced backyard. Upstairs, the three bedrooms have refinished original hardwood floors. The main and upper levels of the home have been freshly painted. There is a finished walk-up loft/attic (17'10" x 9'9") with new carpet - an excellent bonus space for home office, studio, or an additional bedroom. The basement is unfinished and provides endless possibilities for potential finished space as well as lots of storage. The garage (19'2"x11'4") has had structural updates along with a new garage door and eavestroughs. The furnace is new (May 2026). Roof updated in 2019. Walk to LRT, Kitchener Market, Iron Horse Trail, shops, restaurants, schools, the Auditorium, and quick access to Hwy 7/8 and 401.
