110 Ralph Avenue East located in East Transcona

We are excited to tell you about this great family home located in the heart of a wonderful community called “Transcona”,  practically next door to Roland Michener arena/Transcona stadium and close to all levels of school, shopping and transportation.




Transcona is a suburb of Winnipeg, Manitoba located about 10 kilometres (6 miles) east of the downtown area. Until 1972 it was a separate municipality, having been incorporated first as the Town of Transcona in 1912 and then as the City of Transcona in 1961. Today it is represented by the Transcona city ward, represented by a member of Winnipeg City Council, and, with much larger boundaries including large areas that were part of the Municipality of North Kildonan, much of the area west of Plessis, the Transcona neighbourhood cluster. It is primarily a working class residential suburb with some light industry.

 

 

 

 

 

When you drive up to this home you will be amazed by its sheer size and unique appearance.  This 2 Storey, custom built home has to offer you 1848 square feet of living space, 4 bedrooms, 1 full and 2 half bathrooms.

After walking past the beautifully landscaped front yard and opening the front door you will be greeted by a large entrance way with new flooring and an ample sized closet.  Immediately to the left you will see a large living room with newer windows & neutral paint colours that complement the brand new modern laminate flooring.   Open to the living room you will find a large family eating area / dining room and a BRAND NEW sleek kitchen that will make cooking for your family an absolute pleasure!  Not only does it feature brand new dark stained cabinets with modern pulls, it has a new counter top, sink & faucet. Finishing off the kitchen is a gorgeous back splash that compliments the space nicely and is easy to maintain.  Has it been mentioned that the Stainless Steel fridge, stove & Dishwasher are included with the sale of this home?  Also located on this floor is a 2 pce washroom, mud room and extra storage.  The mud room leads to the attached double garage (20x22) with even more storage!  Want to take your morning coffee or early evening wine outside?  Step right off your new kitchen to a great private cozy deck. 

Located in the living room you will find a beautiful loft style spiral staircase that leads to the second floor.  As you make your way up this staircase please notice the high ceilings and very large window that allows in a flood of light!  At the top of the stairs you will immediately be welcomed by an open family room / den.  The large master bedroom is located at the front of the upper level with brand new flooring, newer paint & windows.  A very welcoming space indeed and it’s complimented with a 2 piece ensuite and a good sized walk in closet.  The very wide hallway will lead you down to 3 more bedrooms that are all generous in size and a very large bathroom that has double sinks with plenty of storage.  Also conveniently located on this floor you have your laundry room (washer and dryer included) with an additional storage room located directly beside it. This floor has also had new flooring professionally installed with a lick of new paint added to some of the spaces.  You might wonder what the tall steal bar is that is located at the top of the stairs.  Thinking outside the box, this smart home owner installed it to make it easy to hoist furniture or appliances up to the second floor.  Ingenious!

With its square posture and unique interior this truly is a one of a kind home that has been lovingly lived in for the past 21 years by a wonderful family, a feisty dog and a happy cat.

Magnificent Makeovers on a Budget‏

Have you ever watched those TV shows where some lucky homeowner gets a room redecorated by a professional? To have something similar done in your own home you would have to make a serious investment, or become a TV show guest!

 

However, there are ways to re-decorate a room and make it look great – even spectacular – on a budget.

 

Say, for example, you want a living room makeover. If your sofa is worn you can buy a fitted sofa cover that will make it look almost new. Table cloths on worn end-tables and other surfaces can have a similar affect.

 

Don't forget the most economical redecorating trick of them all: Paint! A fresh coat of paint can bring a room to life! Hanging a few new pictures can also have a dramatic impact on the look of

a room. You don't have to buy a Rembrandt. Attractive, simply framed pictures will also add interest and colour.

 

With a little imagination, it's amazing how much you can improve a room on

a little or even no budget.

Air conditioning season is here

Time to prepare your central or window air conditioning unit for the warmer weather.

• Inspect the air filter, clean or change, if necessary
• Clear the area around the outside condenser coil
• Check the outside condenser coil regularly to ensure it's clean and not blocked with leaves, pollen, grass, dirt, etc.
• Ensure that the return and supply registers in your home (if you have central air) are unobstructed or that the window unit is not blocked by furniture or drapery
• Direct the vents upward to blow the cool air up; it will drift naturally down to floor level
• Ensure that the drain line from the coil within the home is clear and unobstructed (central air systems)
• Caulk and weather strip around windows and doors to prevent the cool air from leaking out and the heat from leaking in
• During operation, keep windows closed and draperies drawn on windows facing the sun
• A central air conditioner with a SEER of 13 will save $10-$20/year compared to an older unit with a SEER rating of 10
• Book your central air conditioning contractor for an annual cleaning and inspection (this is a good time to check your furnace too!) The service should include cleaning of the outside condenser coil, inside evaporator coil, inside fan assembly, filter replacement, inspecting all other components and checking that the system is operating correctly.

A central air conditioner should be sized between 80 per cent - 125 per cent of the total cooling capacity required for your home according to national standards.  Having a central air conditioner larger than this is more expensive to buy, and not necessarily better than a small one.  A properly sized unit will run continuously on a hot, humid day, steadily condensing out moisture on the cooling coils and lowering the relative humidity for a far more comfortable condition.  Your contractor should perform a heat gain calculation to determine the size of air conditioner that is right for you.
