UPDATED FAMILY HOME WITH STYLISH FINISHES, TWO FIREPLACES, A FINISHED BASEMENT & AN ENTERTAINER'S BACKYARD! Over 1,700 sq ft above grade, a finished basement and thoughtful updates throughout make this all-brick two-storey easy to picture as your next home. The landscaped front garden and covered porch create an appealing arrival, while 7-inch engineered plank flooring, smooth ceilings, pot lights, fresh paint and custom window treatments carry a modern look throughout the main level. The generous living room features an electric fireplace, oversized windows and a walkout to the backyard, while the dining room comes equipped with a gas fireplace for cozy dinners and relaxed evenings. The kitchen is a standout, featuring quartz counters, detailed cabinetry finished with crown moulding, built-in wine storage, a breakfast peninsula, statement hood, pot filler and newer stainless steel appliances including a gas range. Upstairs, the generous primary bedroom offers a walk-in closet and private ensuite, joined by two additional bedrooms, with custom doors and blackout blinds in all three. The finished basement adds an expansive recreation room with built-in shelving and enough flexibility for movie nights, a playroom, workouts or a home office. Summer living takes over on the 30 x 16 ft pressure-treated deck, where a pergola with lighting and a retractable panel screen creates an outdoor room of its own, complete with a gas barbecue line and wiring for a hot tub. The fenced yard adds lawn space, established gardens and an adorable shed with loads of personality. A main-floor powder room, garage storage, pedestal washer and dryer, central vacuum, sump pump with battery backup and evident pride of ownership complete this #HomeToStay, all in north Barrie near schools, parks, recreation, transit, shopping and Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre.
