Welcome to 554 Woolwich St, nestled in the coveted Exhibition Park neighbourhood. Built in 1885, this 1,271 sq ft bungalow has been thoughtfully transformed over the past 12 years while preserving every ounce of its original charm, soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and all. Move-in ready with a freshly painted exterior (2025) and a double-wide concrete driveway poured in 2024 with room for four cars, the updates run deep: plumbing and wiring have all been replaced. Inside, the layout is as functional as it is full of character, a fantastic eat-in kitchen, an expansive living room that fits the sectional to prove it, 2 bathrooms (4 piece & 2 piece), main floor laundry, two bedrooms with ample closet space, a dedicated office with custom Barzotti built-ins and soapstone, and a quaint guest room that doubles as a nursery. The secluded primary bedroom with a gas fireplace feels more like a retreat than a bedroom, complete with a walk-in closet. For the cook or baker, the custom Barzotti kitchen delivers: soapstone countertops, double sinks, checkered floors, and an eight-burner Bluestar gas range. The built-in speaker system sets the perfect ambiance for entertaining, while the dreamy private backyard, featuring an in-ground fibreglass pool with travertine and porcelain decking and a new sand filter (2024), will leave your guests speechless. The insulated garage has been converted into a gym with a gas fireplace and 30-amp panel, making it equally suited as a private client office or artist's studio. This century home in Exhibition Park has been thoughtfully designed and it shows.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $727/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.
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.
About Exhibition Park
I know Exhibition Park 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: Guelph properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $3,333 (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.
