A turn onto Fairleigh Crescent feels like a step back in time. Tucked within Hamilton's sought-after St. Clair neighbourhood, this hidden gem is lined with beautifully preserved century homes beneath a canopy of mature, old-growth trees. At 40 Fairleigh stands a remarkable Ginkgo tree, believed to be over 800 years old-so significant it has been catalogued and monitored by the University. A century ago, the crescent itself was thoughtfully curved around another notable tree located on this same property, creating a graceful, meandering streetscape far more charming than the typical city grid, and resulting in a slightly larger lot. The featured home offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, rare private parking for 5 and extensive renovations. Updates include two beautifully finished baths, a substantial second-floor addition and an open kitchen anchored by an impressive 65 x 53 granite island. Every improvement has been completed with pride and careful attention to preserving the home's original character and craftsmanship. The second-floor expansion has created two exceptionally large bedrooms-each spacious enough to include its own sitting area. Below, a clean, unfinished 760 sq. ft. basement provides excellent potential for future development should additional living space be desired.
