A Rare Gem in the Heart of Penetanguishene with detached workshop in backyard. Space, Character & Lifestyle! Welcome to a home that checks all the boxes for families, multi-generational living and anyone craving a vibrant small-town lifestyle near the shores of Georgian Bay. This beautifully updated and expanded stone home offers a total of 5 spacious bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and 1 half bath, making it ideal for growing families or accommodating aging parents with ease. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the curb appeal: manicured yard, classic stone exterior, charming covered front porch and an expansive back deck, perfect for family barbecues or lazy afternoons with a good book. Inside, the open-concept main floor is warm and welcoming, with crown molding in the living room that adds timeless character to the open space. Downstairs, the walk-up lower level is brimming with potential featuring a large rec room with a wet bar, laundry chute, and a bonus room with existing plumbing and stove outlet, ideal for creating a second kitchen, in-law suite, or independent space for adult children or guests. Outside, you'll find privacy and beauty in equal measure; cedar hedges, mature landscaping and a deep lot leading to a well-lit workshop with loft. An incredible space for hobbies, a home occupation, or extra storage. A garden shed is tucked behind the carport for even more convenience. With natural gas already on site, there's great potential. Supported by 200-amp service and an electric hot water tank. The location? Second to none. Just a short walk to the waterfront, local parks, boat launch, and community events. Enjoy the Trans Canada Trail at your doorstep for walking, jogging, or cycling adventures. Penetanguishene offers a truly special lifestyle where you can live, work, and play, all surrounded by the natural beauty of Georgian Bay.
