190 Shanty Bay Road Barrie, Ontario L4M 1E4
$829,900
Step into a piece of Barrie’s past. Welcome to 190 Shanty Bay Road, believed to be the first home ever built in the city, with origins dating back as early as the 1830s. This rare 4-bedroom character home blends timeless charm with smart updates, all tucked into one of Barrie’s most loved neighbourhoods — just steps to Johnson’s Beach, the North Shore Trail, downtown, RVH, and more. Inside, original pine floors and hand-hewn beams bring warmth to every room. The kitchen is light and bright with white cabinetry, granite countertops, and a central island — perfect for morning coffee or casual meals. A walkout from the dining area leads to a lush, fenced yard surrounded by gardens, mature trees, and the kind of quiet you don’t often find this close to downtown. Both bathrooms have been tastefully renovated, and the detached 1.5-car garage with hydro adds extra storage or potential workspace. With no side neighbours one one side and a city-owned lot on the other, there’s added space and privacy to enjoy the outdoors. This home is ideal for those who want more than just another house — it’s for people who appreciate history, value walkability, and crave a space that feels like it has a soul. Whether you're a young family, a working professional, or someone who wants to live near the water and trails — 190 Shanty Bay Road is ready to welcome you home. (id:50787)
