Imagine finding a home that offers the perfect balance of classic comfort and the creative freedom to truly make the space your own. Tucked away on a 51-foot lot in one of Rockwood's most inviting and settled neighborhoods, this property stands out for its spacious front porch and functional design. It's the kind of home where you have plenty of room to grow, all while being just steps away from the conservation area and local shops that make Rockwood so amazing. The main floor is bright and open, featuring large windows and a cozy electric fireplace in the family room. The layout flows naturally from the front foyer into the spacious dining area and back to a functional kitchen, which comes complete with a large pantry for extra storage and views of the deep backyard. Whether you're hosting a holiday dinner or stepping out to the deck for a weekend BBQ, the space feels large and inviting. There is also a 2-piece powder room located on the main level. Upstairs, you'll find a rare layout featuring four generously sized bedrooms, including a primary retreat with plenty of space, a walk-in closet, and its own 4-piece ensuite. The three additional bedrooms are bright and roomy, served by a well-kept 4-piece family bathroom. The basement is a true blank canvas. Currently unfinished and fully insulated, it offers a massive footprint ready for your creative touch. With a 3-piece rough-in already in place, the possibilities are endless to add significant value and living space. The outdoor space is where this home truly shines. The lot provides a level of privacy and space that is hard to find in newer developments. You will love spending summers on the deck surrounded by beautiful perennial gardens, with more than enough room left over for a pool or playset. You are within walking distance to parks, schools, and nature trails, with an easy commute to Guelph or the GTA. Come discover why this is the perfect place to plant your roots in the heart of Rockwood.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $450/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.
Negotiation Opportunity
At 123 days on site, this property has exceeded the typical selling timeline for Guelph/Eramosa. This creates leverage for buyers. The seller may be motivated by carrying costs, life circumstances, or previous deals falling through. I'd recommend a strategic offer below asking with terms that favour you.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Guelph/Eramosa 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 Guelph/Eramosa. 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.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Guelph/Eramosa properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $3,750 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
