If you've been waiting for the view, you've just found it. Imagine starting every morning with a coffee on your private balcony overlooking Kempenfelt Bay, and ending your evenings with breathtaking sunsets and the twinkling lights of Barrie's skyline. This is waterfront living at its finest. With over 1,800 sq. ft, this corner suite is wrapped in floor-to-ceiling windows along the south and west walls, showcasing uninterrupted panoramic views from nearly every room. With 2 bedrooms, a den, 2 bathrooms, 9-foot ceilings, and a bright open-concept layout, every space was thoughtfully designed to let the view take center stage. At the heart of the home is a timeless white kitchen featuring built-in stainless steel appliances, a large island, and seamless flow into the spacious living and dining area. Electric blinds add everyday convenience, while the generously sized laundry room and two same-level side-by-side parking spaces just steps away from the unit makes daily living effortless. The primary suite feels like your own private retreat, complete with balcony access, walk-through his & hers closets, and a spa-inspired ensuite with double sinks, a walk-in glass shower, and a deep soaker tub. Whether you're watching sailboats drift across the bay or the city lights sparkle after sunset, it's a view you'll never tire of. Beyond your suite, enjoy a fitness center, sauna, steam room, whirlpool, rooftop terraces with BBQs, guest suites, a concierge desk, a library, party and dining/meeting room, private docks, and even a dog wash station.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $694/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.
Condo Considerations
For condos, I always review the status certificate thoroughly. Key things I look for: reserve fund health (should be well-funded), any upcoming special assessments, rules that might affect your lifestyle (pets, rentals, renovations), and the corporation's financial statements. We'll want to verify the monthly fees and what they include.
Starter Home Potential
3 bedrooms works well for couples planning families or small families with one child. Consider whether you might outgrow the space in 5-7 years. If so, factor in potential moving costs when making your decision. Alternatively, some buyers convert a bedroom to an office and make it work long-term.
About City Centre
I know City Centre 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 $5,208 (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.
