Practically one of a kind! This custom-built, 1,650 sq. ft. home is the perfect mix of old soul and modern style. Tucked into the heart of St. Patrick's Ward, you'll be surrounded by the charm and character of one of Guelph's most beloved neighbourhoods, while enjoying all the comfort, efficiency, and peace of mind that comes with a newer home. Life here is refreshingly easy. From the thoughtfully selected finishes inside to the low-maintenance exterior, this home was designed to let you spend less time on upkeep and more time enjoying where you live. The bright, open-concept main floor is made for real life-whether that's hosting friends, wrangling the family, or simply kicking back after a long day. Throw open the sliding doors to the composite deck and your living space instantly stretches outdoors for summer barbecues, morning coffees, and evenings under the stars. Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, including a dreamy primary retreat complete with a walk-in shower, double vanity, and plenty of room to breathe. Then there's the lower level-the home's secret superpower. Built with an accessory suite already in mind, it's wired and plumbed for a future kitchen. Add one small wall and a kitchen, and voilà-you've got a self-contained one-bedroom suite for extended family, guests, or a little extra income. Not looking to share? Keep it all to yourself as the ultimate rec room, home office, guest space, or teen retreat, complete with an additional bedroom and a 3-piece bath. And the location? It's hard to beat. Walk downtown for dinner, hop on the GO Train, or wander the nearby trails whenever the mood strikes. The current owners feel like they won the lottery with this home and this neighbourhood-and once you see it for yourself, you just might feel the same.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $597/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.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Guelph's current market, desirable homes often receive multiple offers within 5-7 days. If you're seriously interested, I recommend booking a showing immediately. However, never let urgency override due diligence - we'll still do proper inspections.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Guelph 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. Good resale value as demand remains consistent.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 4 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.
