Other Description:
A rare opportunity to own a historic, fully renovated 100-year-old brick building located at 434 1st Street, Kamsack, Saskatchewan. This character-filled property offers a blend of original charm and modern functionality, making it an excellent option for professional office use or creative repurposing.
The main floor (22'5'' by 24'5'') is the core of the building, featuring an open-concept layout with wide plank hardwood flooring, painted drywall, and faux antique metal ceiling tiles, lending an old-world charm to the space. Seven large windows on the north and west faces of the building provide abundant natural light, perfect for a professional office, studio, or boutique. The space is outfitted with two large corner live edge wooden desks and a matching boardroom table that give a distinctive touch to the room. Updated electrical systems support modern business needs, including cabling for a wall-mounted television and ample outlets for appliances. The kitchenette is stylish and functional, complete with granite countertops, a stainless-steel sink, disguised mini-fridge, and electrical outlets for additional appliances. The main floor also includes a 2-piece bathroom (5'5'' by 8'8'').
The basement (6.5-foot ceiling height) is fully finished and provides functional space for additional storage, or other needs. The main room (30'10'' by 12'9'') features laminate flooring, painted drywall, and plumbing for a sink, making it versatile for a wide range of uses. A security room or basement office (10'10'' by 8'5'') comes furnished with a desk, monitor, and large filing cabinets. The utility room (20'5'' by 8'5'') houses updated systems, including a high-efficiency natural gas furnace, a 28-gallon electric hot water heater, a 200-amp electrical panel, an HRV 60H air exchanger, central air conditioning, and a sump pump. These modern utilities ensure efficient and reliable performance. A 2-piece bathroom (5'8'' by 4'2'') is also located in the basement, though it requires some finishing touches, namely a door, as well as a mirror and light fixture.
The rooftop patio is an incredible feature, offering an open-air space (22'7'' by 38'7'') with rubber patio stones for flooring and a 3-foot-high ledge running around the perimeter. The rooftop is equipped with electrical outlets and a retractable sunshade (working condition unknown), making it perfect for hosting events or enjoying outdoor relaxation. The rooftop includes a custom-designed sign can and signage, which are included in the sale. While there are visible electrical connections for lighting, no fixtures are currently installed.
The property has seen extensive renovations between 2013 and 2015, including new electrical wiring, PEX waterlines, and the refinishing of the exterior brickwork. Despite these upgrades, there are a few minor cosmetic issues like missing electrical and duct covers, scuffing of paint, as well as other issues like a cracked window on the northwest corner, or some water damage in the stairwell leading to the rooftop (damage appears to be older and drone footage shows no visible roofing issues. The exterior brickwork shows some failed grout on the northwest corner, and the stucco around the foundation is beginning to flake. However, none of these issues affect the functionality of the building and can be addressed.
The lot size is large, with a 100-foot frontage and a 150-foot depth, totaling 15,000 square feet (0.34 acres). To the east of the building, a tri-tone rock garden enhances the curb appeal.
The building is wheelchair accessible on the main floor, though there is no accessibility for the rooftop or basement. Property taxes for 2024 are set at $2,972.71, and the sale includes all contents, except for any paperwork discovered, which must be turned over for disposal.
October Bills are as follows: Power: $96.16, Energy: $106.66, Water Sewer & Waste: $120.00. Please note these numbers reflect vacant occupancy
