The kitchen has granite counters, a gas range, a long wall of cabinetry, a coffee station, a wine rack and a breakfast bar. Garden doors lead out to the pool, so the cook is never left out of the conversation.The primary suite upstairs is a proper retreat, not just a place to sleep. It holds a king bed, a sitting area and a desk with room to spare, and comes with custom built-in wardrobes and a bay window. The ensuite has a double vanity, a soaker tub and a glass shower. Three more bedrooms, a second full bathroom and the laundry room round out the level, so laundry day stays on one floor.The lower level was finished for downtime.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $424/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.
Market Position
At 19 days on site, this property has had reasonable exposure. It hasn't sold immediately (which often indicates overpricing), but isn't languishing either. There's likely room for a 3-5% negotiation from asking price.
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 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.
