Born in 1860 on the site of Barrie's first hospital and rebuilt from the studs up, this is not a renovation, it's a restoration. Welcome to 105 Duckworth Street, an exceptional two storey residence offering nearly 3,000 sq ft of refined above grade living on a rare irregular oversized lot spanning 37.73 ft x 330 ft deep (~12,464 sq ft) in Barrie's coveted Codrington neighbourhood. Inside, every detail has been reimagined: silent floor joists, spray foam insulation, all new 200 AMP electrical, new plumbing throughout, and vaulted ceilings within the original historic shell. Rich hardwood and travertine floors, custom millwork, and formal living and dining rooms create a timeless atmosphere. The family room is anchored by a signature Rumford wood burning fireplace with hand cut limestone chimney. The Hickling chef's kitchen features quartz countertops, a centre quartz island with B/I Microwave, and premium stainless appliances. Upstairs, three generous bedrooms plus a versatile bonus room lead to a spa inspired primary ensuite with heated floors and soaker tub with separate dual rainfall shower heads in the separate shower. The finished lower level adds a recreation room, bright large laundry with large B/I counter and cabinets, and more than ample storage, inlaw potential or nanny suite a great fit. Outside, Owen Sound ledge rock, hand chipped and cut on site, wraps the exterior alongside white pine timber framing, Maibec wood siding, covered porch, in ground sprinklers, and an oversized Maibec clad garden shed. All inclusions transfer: washer/dryer, chest freezer, water softener, humidifier, GDO, window coverings, and more. Steps to Kempenfelt Bay, waterfront trails, and Barrie's vibrant downtown. Closed municipal permit on file. A rare opportunity!

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $519/sqft, this is priced below the area average. This could represent genuine value, but let's investigate why. In my experience, underpriced homes often have deferred maintenance, unfavourable layouts, or motivated sellers. I'll help you determine which it is.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Barrie are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Family-Friendly Layout
4 bedrooms hits the sweet spot for most families. You'll have room for 2-3 children plus a home office or guest room. This is the most sought-after configuration for families relocating to Barrie. Good resale value as demand remains consistent.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 3 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.

I know Codrington well from working with many buyers and sellers here. Each pocket has its own character - let me share what I've learned about this specific street and block. During our showing, I'll point out local amenities, school catchments, and what similar homes have sold for recently.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Barrie properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $5,408 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
