This Kingston home backs onto a schoolyard—no rear neighbours, no excuses to be late
If you’ve ever dreamed of a backyard so big it feels like it stretches all the way to your kid’s classroom—you’re in luck. This charming 3+1 bedroom, 1.5 bath raised bungalow in Bayridge East backs directly onto Truedell Public School, giving new meaning to the phrase “school’s just around the corner” (literally... it's your back gate).
Perfect for first-time buyers, growing families, or anyone ready to trade condo fees for grass stains, this home checks all the practical boxes without taking itself too seriously. The main floor layout is light-filled and straightforward: a bright living area for binge-watching or toddler gymnastics, an eat-in kitchen where cereal is always on the menu, and three bedrooms that can flex as needed—sleeping quarters, Zoom rooms, or glorified laundry folding zones.
Downstairs, the finished lower level adds bonus space with a cozy rec room, a fourth bedroom (perfect for teens, guests, or long-lost cousins), and a handy half bath that saves you the trip upstairs mid-movie.
But the real showstopper is the backyard. Fully fenced, wonderfully private, and with no rear neighbours (just a sea of green and maybe the distant squeak of a swing set), this is your spot for summer BBQs, quiet sunsets, and spontaneous games of catch. Plus, if you're the type to forget it’s pajama day until 8:45 a.m., the direct schoolyard access could be your new favourite “amenity.”
With parks, shopping, transit, and everything else you need just minutes away, this home brings together comfort, location, and value in one delightfully uncomplicated package. Just don’t be surprised when your backyard becomes the neighbourhood’s unofficial after-school hangout.
