Property Description

Owning a century home is more than buying real estate; it's stepping into a legacy, and opportunities like this rarely come along. Built in 1885 and thoughtfully maintained and updated, this charming 3-bedroom Barrie century home blends timeless character with modern comfort in all the right ways. From the moment you arrive, the wraparound porch, mature trees, and lush gardens create an immediate sense of arrival and calm. Inside, original hardwood floors ground the home in history, while solid custom oak cabinetry adds warmth and authenticity to the kitchen, complemented by granite countertops, tile backsplash, induction cooktop, and gas piping roughed in for future flexibility. The layout flows effortlessly for both everyday living and entertaining, offering spaces that invite connection as easily as quiet retreat. Step outside to a private backyard oasis featuring a stone patio, manicured gardens, tranquil water fountain, hot tub with privacy screen, outdoor shower, and storage shed, a rare escape in the heart of the city. Significant updates include a bright office addition, double car garage with loft, restored brick exterior, stone walkways, in-floor heating in the main bath, 200-amp service, and modern kitchen appliances, while practical touches like irrigation, freeze-proof outdoor faucets, and a second fridge in the garage make daily life seamless. Set on an expansive corner lot just steps to downtown, the waterfront, shops, and cafés, this is a rare chance to own a home where history, lifestyle, and location align beautifully. Homes like this don't wait, and neither should you.
