Property Description

Century Character, Modern Updates & A Backyard Worth Staying Home For!

Set on a 174 x 125 ft corner lot in Barrie’s Holly community, this century home sits among mature trees and established landscaping, with the entire property fully fenced. A private double-wide driveway leads to the attached single-car garage, while a garden shed, open lawn and multiple patio areas add even more use to the property.

The main floor is where the home’s age becomes one of its greatest strengths. Tall ceilings, deep wood trim, hardwood flooring, decorative ceiling medallions and the original staircase give the rooms their distinctive character. The living room is lined with large windows and original woodwork, while the main-floor bedroom has a gas fireplace and extensive built-in cabinetry, making it equally well suited to use as a fourth bedroom, office, library or second sitting room.

The eat-in kitchen has been updated with rich wood cabinetry, granite counters, stainless steel appliances and a large island with seating. Built-in cabinetry continues into the adjoining dining area, where double garden doors open directly to the patio. A spacious mudroom connects to the attached garage, while the main-floor powder room also incorporates laundry.

The second level holds three bedrooms and a 4-piece bathroom. The primary bedroom offers both a walk-in closet and a separate double closet, with two additional bedrooms nearby. Hardwood flooring, tall trim and large windows continue upstairs, carrying the home’s character from one level to the next. Nearly 1,900 sq ft across the main and second levels gives the home four bedrooms in total, while the unfinished basement provides additional utility and storage space.

Outside, one patio sits within its own fenced garden area, while a second patio gives you another place for meals or evenings outside. Mature trees, established gardens and plenty of lawn make the 174 x 125 ft lot a defining part of the property. Shopping, recreation, trails, Highway 400, Allandale Waterfront GO and Barrie’s waterfront are all only minutes away.
