Welcome to this bright condo townhouse, tucked into a quiet, convenient pocket of the city. Offering an ideal blend of comfort, functionality, and low-maintenance living, this inviting home is well suited to first-time buyers, families, downsizers, and investors alike. Curb appeal begins with the freshly paved driveway, completed in August 2025, along with the added convenience of a single-car garage. Inside, the spacious and flexible layout provides room to live, work, and entertain with ease. Hardwood flooring, pot lights, and a cozy gas fireplace create a warm and polished atmosphere throughout the main living areas. The generous primary bedroom offers a comfortable private retreat, while two additional bedrooms provide excellent flexibility for children, guests, a home office, or hobby space. With two bathrooms and thoughtful living space throughout, this home is designed for everyday practicality. Step outside to the easterly-facing covered deck, a wonderful extension of the home that is perfect for enjoying morning coffee in the sunshine, hosting summer meals, or relaxing outdoors in a sheltered setting through multiple seasons. Recent updates add valuable peace of mind, including a new refrigerator in 2023, washer and dryer in 2022, central air conditioning in 2022, new fencing in 2022, and a central vacuum system serviced in 2021. Shingles were replaced by the condominium corporation in 2018. Forced-air heating and central air ensure year-round comfort. Ideally located just minutes from Johnson's Beach, parks, schools, local shopping, and everyday amenities, this property delivers an exceptional balance of lifestyle and convenience. With generous living space, strong rental potential, and a desirable location, this condo townhouse is a smart investment and a welcoming place to call home.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $383/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 69 days on site, this property has exceeded the typical selling timeline for Barrie. 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.
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. The $661/month fees should cover building insurance, common elements, and reserve contributions.
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.
