entry wall adds another layer of character and polish. The living room is anchored by a fireplace feature, creating a cozy setting for evenings at home, while the two-tone eat-in kitchen features stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, full-height cabinetry, and exposed brick accents that highlight the home’s historic roots. A walkout extends the living space outdoors, and a bright main floor powder room adds everyday convenience. The upper level offers four bedrooms and a 4-piece bathroom, including a bedroom with a walkout patio that overlooks Lake Simcoe, a unique vantage point for watching the downtown fireworks or the summer air show. The third-floor primary suite is a standout retreat with vaulted ceilings, built-in storage, and a spa-like ensuite. The finished basement provides additional flexible living space ideal for recreation, work-from-home needs, or hosting guests. Notable updates include a roof (2019), central air conditioning (2019), furnace (2017), a new owned hot water heater (2026), main-level paint (2024), and fresh basement paint (2026). Outside, the fully fenced backyard offers an unusually large outdoor space for a downtown property, complemented by a new partially covered deck that creates the perfect setting for entertaining. Located just a five-minute walk to Barrie’s waterfront, downtown restaurants, cafés, and nightlife, with Highway 400 only a two-minute drive away, this home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy historic charm, modern comfort, and exceptional walkability in one of the city’s most convenient locations.
