How cool would it be to watch the ships glide past your front porch? Welcome to 146 Mellanby Ave, located on Port Colborne's historic "island", directly across Lock 8 Park where the rhythm of the canal becomes part of daily life: morning coffee with a front-row seat to the freighters, evening walks along the water and a neighbourhood rooted in connection and history. Built in 1914, this two-storey brick home is ready for its next chapter. On the main floor, you'll find a traditional layout including a living room, dining/great room, bedroom and kitchen with a side utility room. Upstairs offers two additional bedrooms and a 4-piece bathroom (updated in 2018). This was a beloved family home for decades, filled with life in weekly gatherings and celebrations around the kitchen table, spacious backyard festivities and many long nights of conversation and camaraderie. Today, it represents a true opportunity for restoration and transformation. Featuring original lath and plaster construction and requiring cosmetic updating, it offers solid "bones", a full basement for storage and a detached single-car garage. Set on a 45x112 corner lot in one of the city's most iconic locations, this property is ideal for buyers with a vision, searching for a project - this is your chance to breathe new life into a century home and create something special!
