Welcome to 279 Robert Street — a charming Victorian semi in the heart of Hamilton’s Landsdale neighbourhood. This one blends preserved character with just the right updates, and it’s tucked into one of the most walkable pockets of the city. You’re a 4-minute walk to Hamilton General Hospital and Barton Village, where new cafés, restaurants, and bars are popping up on the regular. Plus, it’s only a 10-minute walk to James Street North and close to public transit, grocery stores, and more. Inside, you’ll find nearly 1,100 square feet of living space, with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a surprising amount of original detail. Ten foot ceilings, inlaid hardwood floors, vintage vent grates, ornate ceiling medallions, and beautifully preserved hardware. The exposed brick in the entryway and powder room brings even more charm, while newer mechanicals—including a newer furnace and A/C (both owned)—offer everyday comfort. The layout gives you a bright, open living room, a full dining room, a large kitchen, and a powder room on the main floor, with three bedrooms and a full bath upstairs. Downstairs, there’s a full-height basement with laundry and room to grow or store. Out back, there’s a private, fully fenced yard with space to garden, kick back, or entertain. The covered rear porch adds some shade and charm, and the whole space feels like a quiet little pocket in the city. And yes—two parking spots come with it, which is very rare in this neighbourhood. Don't wait on this one - book your showing today!
