38 Forest Road, St. John's, Newfoundland & Labrador

About 38 Forest Road

Originally built for the iconic Al Clouston in 1946, this 3 unit home on the most sought after section of Forest Road in St. John's has only ever had 2 owners. While it has always been 3 separate registered units, it was built to be readily converted into a single family home, as per the original blue prints. The main floor unit features 2 spacious bedrooms, a large living room with fireplace, a bright eat-in kitchen as well as its own laundry room / mudroom (https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=a5LPnB2Y4mc). The top floor unit has another two spacious bedrooms, large eat-in kitchen, beautiful bathroom, and a living room with fireplace, as well as its own laundry (https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=n1UMaEsHne8). With gorgeous hardwood floors, solid wood trims and doors, this home has retained its historic charm while being tastefully updated in the main and 2nd floors. The basement is a 3rd unit (property pays 3 City of St. John's water taxes) but has been mostly demolished in order to be rebuilt better again. Owners believe there to be red cedar clapboard underneath the white siding. Roof shingles replaced in 2022 by Shane Dooley. This home has a large driveway accessible off Empire Avenue as well as 3 permits for on-street parking. (id:2599)
