300 Topsail Road, St. John’s — A rare landmark property offering exceptional flexibility, future potential, and timeless character in one of St. John’s most central locations. Set on an extraordinary 0.264-hectare estate lot with over 111 feet of frontage on Topsail Road, this iconic 1945 character home presents a unique opportunity for homeowners, investors, developers, entrepreneurs, and small business owners alike. Featuring nearly 4,000 sq. ft., this distinguished residence showcases original craftsmanship including a grand staircase, original woodwork, bevelled glass details, oversized windows, generous living spaces, multiple fireplaces (not WETT certified), formal dining, and flexible lower-level space ideal for family living or professional use. Adding to its versatility, a successful home-based business previously operated from the property, offering added confidence for buyers exploring professional or business use. A dedicated office space with its own exterior entrance to the driveway and private 2-piece bathroom creates an ideal setup for a small business, consultant, wellness practice, or home office—offering meaningful savings compared to leasing separate commercial space. Significant upgrades provide confidence and value, including new PEX plumbing, clapboard siding, premium roof system with ice shield protection, water booster improvements, updated windows, freshly painted exterior, and newly paved driveway. Outside, enjoy a private urban estate with mature trees, an 18x33 inground pool with updated liner and filtration system, garage, two driveways, and abundant parking. A true rarity in St. John’s real estate, this property also offers compelling future mixed-use or commercial redevelopment potential, subject to City of St. John’s approvals. Opportunities combining land, location, character, and long-term vision are increasingly rare!
