About 31 Yates Street

Attention Contractors, Designers & Flippers - Your Next Project Awaits! Welcome to 31 Yates Street, a rare opportunity in one of St. Catharines' most prestigious and historic neighbourhoods. Located in the coveted Yates Street District, this diamond-in-the-rough sits on an oversized 55.50 x 233.47 ft ravine lot, backing onto the scenic Merritt Trail and overlooking 12 Mile Creek. Surrounded by million-dollar homes ($1M - $2.5M+), the upside here is undeniable.This solid Georgian-style brick bungalow is bursting with character - 11-foot ceilings, detailed crown moulding, and tall baseboards are just a few of the original features waiting to be brought back to life. With two separate entrances, two kitchens, and two hydro meters, there's incredible potential for a legal duplex conversion, luxury single-family restoration, or even a high-end income property. Renovators will appreciate the head start with key updates already completed: roof shingles (2022), owned hot water tank (2017), and boiler (2012). Walkouts on both levels provide a seamless indoor-outdoor flow and capitalize on the serene ravine views. If you're not afraid of putting in the work and understand the value of location, lot size, and architectural bones - this is the project you've been waiting for. Listed at just $699,000, this is your chance to transform a historic home in a blue-chip location with major resale potential.
