Welcome to this breathtaking waterfront property, where luxury meets location on the shores of Kempenfelt Bay. Fully renovated in 2020, this 3,000+ sq. ft. bungalow was designed to maximize spectacular lake views year-round. Blending the comfort of a home with the lifestyle of a cottage, it offers private access to your dock, boat lift, and shoreline-perfect for summer fun, recreation, and relaxation. The main level features an open-concept living room with a feature gas fireplace, office nook, dining room, and custom kitchen with granite countertops and a breakfast bar.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Premium Pricing
At $1566/sqft, this property is priced above the Barrie average of $950/sqft. I'd want to see upgraded finishes, premium location, or recent renovations to justify this price point. During our showing, I'll point out exactly what you're paying extra for.
Market Position
At 27 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.
Excellent Flexibility
With 5 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Barrie.
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.
