CENTURY CHARACTER, MODERN UPDATES & A BACKYARD WORTH STAYING HOME FOR!

Nearly 1,900 sq ft includes a living room wrapped in original woodwork and a main-floor bedroom with a gas fireplace and built-in cabinetry that could also serve as an office, den or second sitting room. The eat-in kitchen features rich wood cabinetry, granite counters, stainless steel appliances and a large island with seating, while built-in cabinetry adds character to the dining area and double garden doors open straight to the patio. A spacious mudroom connects the home to the attached garage, with a powder room and laundry completing the main floor. The second level holds three bedrooms and a 4-piece bathroom, including a spacious primary bedroom with both a walk-in closet and a separate double closet. Outside, the 174 x 125 ft corner lot is fully fenced and lined by mature trees and established landscaping, with a garden shed, open lawn and two patio areas, including one within its own fenced garden section. A private double-wide driveway and attached single-car garage add useful parking, while updated appliances and major home components bring practical improvements to the property. Set in Barrie's Holly community at Beacon Road and Essa Road, shopping, recreation, Highway 400, Allandale Waterfront GO and the waterfront are all only minutes away.

Joe's Thoughts

Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience

Competitive Pricing

At $533/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.

About Holly

I know Holly 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 $3,329 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.

Let's See It Together

Photos only tell part of the story. During our showing, I'll point out things the camera doesn't capture: neighbourhood feel, natural light quality, traffic noise, and overall condition. I'll also share what comparable homes have sold for and help you craft a winning strategy if you decide to move forward.
