Property Description
Set in the heart of Barrie, 36 Sophia Street West is a beautifully updated century home that blends historic character with thoughtful modern upgrades. Inside, hardwood floors run throughout the main living spaces, complemented by original trim, custom trim detailing around the windows and doors, detailed mouldings, and charming sliding doors that add warmth and architectural character. A custom finished entry wall adds another layer of character and polish. The living room is anchored by a fireplace feature, creating a cozy setting for evenings at home, while the two-tone eat-in kitchen features stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, full-height cabinetry, and exposed brick accents that highlight the home's historic roots. A walkout extends the living space outdoors, and a bright main floor powder room adds everyday convenience. The upper level offers four bedrooms and a 4-piece bathroom, including a bedroom with a walkout patio that overlooks Lake Simcoe, a unique vantage point for watching the downtown fireworks or the summer air show. The third-floor primary suite is a standout retreat with vaulted ceilings, built-in storage, and a spa-like ensuite. The finished basement provides additional flexible living space ideal for recreation, work-from-home needs, or hosting guests. Notable updates include a roof (2019), central air conditioning (2019), furnace (2017), a new owned hot water heater (2026), main-level paint (2024), and fresh basement paint (2026). Outside, the fully fenced backyard offers an unusually large outdoor space for a downtown property, complemented by a new partially covered deck that creates the perfect setting for entertaining. Located just a five-minute walk to Barrie's waterfront, downtown restaurants, cafes, and nightlife, with Highway 400 only a two-minute drive away, this home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy historic charm, modern comfort, and exceptional walkability in one of the city's most convenient locations.
