About this home
Welcome to 153 James Street, a beautifully designed custom-built bungalow tucked away on a quiet dead-end street in the charming community of Seaforth. Offering 2 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom, this unique home combines thoughtful design, modern convenience, beautiful outdoor spaces and excellent potential for future expansion. The bright and inviting main floor features an open-concept layout with vaulted ceilings and southern exposure, allowing natural light to fill the living spaces while benefiting from passive solar design. Convenient main-floor laundry adds to the functionality of the home, while the beautifully designed bathroom features a custom pebble stone shower, elegant clawfoot tub and high-volume inline timed exhaust fan. A separate entrance through the garage provides access to the unfinished basement, offering incredible potential to customize the space to suit your needs. With two additional bedrooms already framed in and a bathroom roughed in, the basement presents an excellent opportunity to expand the living space. Step outside and enjoy a backyard designed to connect with nature. Beautiful gardens, armour stone and flagstone added in 2022, and a spacious deck create a wonderful space for relaxing and entertaining. The elevated position of the home overlooks a sunken, wooded wildlife garden, providing a peaceful and private setting. Improved drainage has been thoughtfully designed to flow through a natural dry stream bed leading to the municipal drain. An outside-air-vented hobby room is an added bonus, ideal for projects and paint drying. An EV charger installed in 2025 adds further convenience for today's lifestyle. Ideally located close to community recreation, local amenities and the hospital, this home offers the charm of small-town living without sacrificing convenience. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate Hullett Conservation Area just 10 minutes away, while Lake Huron and the renowned Stratford Festival are approximately 30 minutes away.
