Experience the perfect blend of 1915 historic character and modern versatility in this gable-roofed century home. Nestled in the vibrant heart of downtown Guelph, this residence offers an unbeatable walk ability score (bus stop close) and timeless charm that is increasingly rare. As you approach, the unique cement and green living driveway immediately stands out. This eco-friendly, permeable system blends structural durability with natural aesthetics, creating a living parking surface that naturally manages storm water runoff and recharges the local water table—a perfect match for the environmentally conscious homeowner. Step from the welcoming front porch into a light-filled interior boasting original hardwood floors and sun-drenched living spaces. The main floor transitions seamlessly from a bright dining room into a cozy living area anchored by a classic red gas stove. The kitchen is a chef’s delight, featuring natural wood cabinetry and a double gooseneck sink overlooking the side yard. Nearby, a semi-finished mudroom awaits your final creative touch. Upstairs, you will find a primary suite featuring custom 8-drawer, 3 door built-in storage, maximizing every inch of the home's historic footprint. The true show-stopper is the 2020-built, $47k+ custom garage and studio. Professionally equipped with an air-source heat pump for year-round assistive energy-efficient climate control and a loft bed/den lit by skylights, this space is a dream for remote professionals, artists, or fitness enthusiasts. Enjoy total peace of mind with extensive high-ticket upgrades already completed: 2023: New professional roof ($6,275) and a modern water softener. 2022: Full bathroom remodel ($9,715) featuring chic subway tile and a unique peek-a-boo shower window. 2017: High-efficiency furnace, AC, and water heater ($9,492). Own this downtown Guelph gem for approximately $2,367/month (P&I) based on 20% down, 3.79%, 5-year term, 25-year amortization. (id:61015)
