I have listed a new property at 163 ELM Street E in Bothwell. See details here
If you've been searching for a move in ready bungalow in a welcoming small town community, you'll want to take a closer look at 163 Elm Street in Bothwell.
As Your Hometown Realtor, I love introducing buyers to homes that offer great value without sacrificing comfort or lifestyle. This beautifully maintained bungalow is one of those homes. Whether you're purchasing your first property, looking to simplify life with one floor living, or searching for a peaceful place to retire, this home deserves a spot on your list.
Located on a quiet residential street, this property combines modern updates, practical living spaces, and a private backyard, all within easy reach of schools, parks, shopping, and local amenities.
While Bothwell offers a slower pace of life, it's still conveniently located within driving distance of Sarnia, Chatham, Wallaceburg, and many surrounding communities, making it an attractive option for buyers exploring Sarnia Lambton real estate.
Property Features You'll Love
This thoughtfully updated bungalow offers comfortable living inside and out.
Highlights include:
Two spacious bedrooms
One full bathroom
Bright living room with a large bay window
Updated interior with modern finishes
Single attached garage
Covered front porch
Fully fenced backyard
Detached 12 x 20 outbuilding
Additional 14 foot covered outdoor space with concrete pad
Quiet residential street
Close to schools, parks, shopping, and amenities
Every room has been well maintained, allowing you to simply move in and begin enjoying your new home.
Comfortable Living Inside and Out
One of the biggest advantages of this home is its functional layout.
The bright living room welcomes you with plenty of natural light thanks to the oversized bay window. The kitchen and dining areas flow comfortably for everyday living while the two bedrooms offer generous space for homeowners, guests, or even a home office.
Outside, you'll quickly appreciate how much usable outdoor space this property offers.
Enjoy your morning coffee on the covered front porch, spend evenings entertaining friends in the private fenced backyard, or create your own backyard retreat.
One feature that truly makes this property unique is the detached outbuilding.
Currently being used as a man cave, it could easily become:
A workshop
Home gym
Art studio
Home office
Hobby room
Additional storage
The covered concrete area beside the building is also ideal for a future hot tub, outdoor lounge, or sheltered entertaining area.
These flexible spaces add tremendous value that many homes in this price range simply do not offer.
Who Is This Home Perfect For?
I can see this property appealing to several different types of buyers.
First Time Buyers
If you're entering the market for the first time, this home offers move in ready condition without taking on a major renovation project.
It provides an affordable opportunity to begin building equity while enjoying the benefits of home ownership.
Downsizers
One floor living continues to be one of the most requested features I hear from buyers.
With everything conveniently located on one level, this home offers simplicity without giving up outdoor living space.
Retirees
The quiet street, manageable layout, and peaceful backyard create an ideal setting for retirement living.
Investors
Properties that require little immediate work continue to attract tenants looking for clean, updated homes.
Life in Bothwell
One of the things buyers appreciate most about Bothwell is its sense of community.
This charming town offers local parks, schools, restaurants, shopping, and friendly neighbours, while maintaining the slower pace many families are searching for.
For buyers currently looking at homes for sale in Sarnia, expanding your search to communities like Bothwell can often provide significantly more value for your budget.
You're still within comfortable driving distance of larger centres while enjoying a quieter lifestyle.
Why This Home Stands Out in Today's Sarnia Lambton Real Estate Market
The current Sarnia real estate market continues to reward buyers who act quickly when well maintained, move in ready homes become available.
Properties offering:
Updated interiors
One floor living
Private backyards
Detached workshops
Attached garages
remain highly desirable across Sarnia Lambton real estate.
Finding all of these features together at an affordable price point is becoming increasingly difficult.
If you're buying a home in Sarnia or anywhere throughout Lambton County, Bothwell deserves serious consideration.
Frequently Asked Buyer Questions
