Situated on a low-traffic street in one of Barrie's most established family neighbourhoods, this warm and welcoming home offers a thoughtful layout, abundant natural light, and a true sense of community. Surrounded by walking trails, parks, Wilkins Beach, and top-ranked schools, the location strikes the perfect balance between everyday convenience and a peaceful, tucked-away setting. The main living area forms the heart of the home , providing an open and comfortable layout, designed for connection. Natural light moves beautifully throughout the day, enhancing the calm, inviting atmosphere that defines the space. The intuitive flow of the home offers openness where you want it and separation where it matters, making it equally suited for busy family life, entertaining, and quiet evenings at home. The kitchen was thoughtfully renovated in 2016 and remains a standout feature, upgraded with quality cabinetry, Cambria quartz countertops, a new sink, updated lighting, and appliances, including a professional-grade Brigade (Viking) gas stove. This space was designed to support both everyday meals and hosting, and it continues to anchor the home as a functional and social hub. Bedrooms feature newer carpeting, while pot lights and updated lighting throughout contribute to a bright, modern feel. The basement is partially finished and intentionally left open, offering excellent potential for a nanny suite, in-law suite, or future secondary apartment, allowing the next owners to tailor the space to their needs. Outside, the property benefits from an in-ground irrigation system for easy lawn and garden maintenance, while the surrounding neighbourhood offers parks, schools, medical services, shopping, restaurants, and fitness studios all within close proximity. A new high school with state-of-the-art athletic and learning facilities further enhances the appeal for growing families.
