There are waterfront condominiums with a view... and then there are the ones people remember long after someone else buys them. Welcome to one of Barrie's finest waterfront residences. Offering approximately 1,336 sq. ft. of beautifully renovated living space, this exceptional condominium is defined by its panoramic, unobstructed views across Kempenfelt Bay. Opportunities to find this combination of generous square footage, extensive renovations and a truly front-row waterfront setting are becoming increasingly rare.Every principal room was designed to celebrate the view. Expansive windows and thoughtfully placed mirrors bring the bay into nearly every living space, creating a home where the scenery becomes part of your everyday routine. Enjoy sunrise coffee overlooking the water, watch sailboats glide across the bay throughout the day, and end each evening with the city lights reflecting across Kempenfelt Bay.Extensively renovated throughout, the residence features wide-plank flooring, ceramic tile in the kitchen and bathrooms, premium stainless steel appliances, designer lighting, modern switches with convenient bedside controls, refreshed bathrooms and elegant contemporary finishes.The open-concept living and dining areas are ideal for entertaining while remaining centred around the spectacular waterfront backdrop. The renovated kitchen offers generous prep space, double sinks and premium appliances. Both bedrooms comfortably accommodate king-sized furnishings, while the spacious primary suite enjoys sweeping bay views, a walk-through closet plus an additional closet for exceptional storage, and an updated ensuite.Luxury isn't measured by square footage alone. Waterfront condos like this don't become available often. If you've been waiting for one of Barrie's most captivating condominium views, this is an opportunity worth experiencing. Stand at the window just once, and you'll understand why residences like this are remembered long after they're sold.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $667/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 18 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.
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.
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 $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.
