About this home
Century home charm in the heart of downtown Barrie! Full of character and thoughtfully updated, this lovingly maintained 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom century home offers a beautiful combination of original charm and modern convenience. From the moment you step inside, you'll appreciate the 9-foot ceilings on both the main and upper levels, beautiful original hardwood floors, and natural light that fills the home. The beautifully renovated kitchen (2026) brings a fresh, modern feel with convenient access to the backyard, while the updated bathroom (2025) offers another touch of modern comfort. Upstairs, you'll find a generously sized primary bedroom with an impressive walk-in closet, along with a bright and inviting second bedroom. Outside, the large covered front porch is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day, while the backyard offers flexibility for parking two vehicles or enjoying an outdoor patio space. A full basement with laundry adds everyday functionality, and recent improvements, including a new roof (2026), select updated windows, and a new front door, make this home even more appealing. And the location? Just minutes from downtown Barrie's shops, restaurants, everyday amenities, and beautiful waterfront! A wonderful opportunity to own a home that celebrates its original character while offering the updates and conveniences of today.
