Description
Owning a century home is about more than walls and windows; its about becoming part of its legacy and story. Step into a piece of Barrie's past with this charming 3-bedroom century home, built in 1885 and lovingly maintained and updated. From the moment you arrive, the wrap around porch, mature tree...s, and lush gardens set the stage for a lifestyle that blends timeless character with modern comfort. Inside, original hardwood floors carry a sense of history underfoot, and solid custom oak cabinetry in the kitchen bring warmth and authenticity, while granite countertops, a tile backsplash, and induction cooktop add a refined touch. Gas piping is also roughed in for added convenience. The heart of the home is designed for both daily living and entertaining, with character-filled spaces that invite gathering and quiet retreat alike.The backyard is a private oasis, complete with stone patio, tended gardens, small water fountain, hot tub with privacy screen, outdoor shower, and storage shed; perfect for unwinding in every season. Thoughtful updates include a bright office addition, double car garage with loft, a restored brick exterior, stone walkways, in-floor heating in the main bath, 200-amp service, and modern kitchen appliances. Practical features such as irrigation, freeze-proof outdoor faucets, and a second fridge in the garage make life here effortless. Nestled on an expansive corner lot in the heart of the city, this home offers the rare combination of heritage charm and modern upgrades, all while being steps from downtown, the waterfront, shops, and cafés. This is a home where past and present meet beautifully; a place to slow down, gather, and create your own chapter in a story that began more than a century ago. (id:10452)
