Pinecrest, Oshawa

Pinecrest detached homes for sale

Detached houses are nearly all of Pinecrest. The mid-1980s and early-1990s streets near Rossland Road and Harmony Road offer two-storey plans with three or four bedrooms, plus some bungalows and raised bungalows, on lots roughly 40 to 50 feet across with single or double garages; the late-1990s and 2000s streets toward Taunton Road East and Grandview Street North are larger all-brick two-storeys, double garage, main-floor family room, four bedrooms and, at the top end, five bedrooms with a second staircase or a loft. What to check depends on the era: on the older streets, roofs and furnaces on their second replacement, original windows and the first wave of basement finishes done without permits; on the 2000s houses, builder-grade shingles that are due, poly-B plumbing in some early-1990s builds, and whether the Tarion warranty has long expired so every defect is now the owner's. Lots on the creek branches and ponds are premium; lots against Taunton Road trade that for noise.

Questions people ask about Pinecrest

How big are Pinecrest lots?

Typical suburban widths: 40 to 50 feet on the 1980s and early 1990s streets, 36 to 45 feet on the later phases, with depths around 100 to 115 feet. Pie-shaped lots on crescents and lots backing the creek corridors or ponds are the largest, and corner lots trade side yard for exposure.

What common issues turn up on inspections of 2000s houses here?

Worn builder shingles, attic ventilation shortfalls, window seals that have failed, cracked driveways and garage slabs, and basements finished by owners without permits. Kitec plumbing was used in some houses built from the mid-1990s to 2007, so an inspector should check under sinks and at the water heater. None of these is unusual, but they should be priced.

Do Pinecrest houses have basement apartments?

Some do, especially the larger 2000s houses with side entrances, and Oshawa's rules allow a registered additional unit where parking, fire separation and egress requirements are met. Request the permit and the City's registration; an unregistered unit is a liability rather than income and lenders may not count its rent.
