This 3-bed, 3-bath bungalow in Barrie's west end has a few tricks up its sleeve. The main floor primary bedroom has a 4-piece ensuite with walk-in closet. The kitchen is truly family-sized with a separate eating area and direct deck access. That deck is 12x18 feet, and it overlooks a private yard that backs onto city-owned land, so no one's behind you. Inside, the main floor has hardwood and ceramic floors, with a functional layout that includes main-floor laundry. There's a rec room in the basement with a gas fireplace, and the basement also has an unfinished area perfect for a workshop or storage. The attached garage has inside entry and even a vertical wheelchair lift. This home sits on a 49.2x117.4-foot lot, and the location is solid, with several restaurants within 2-4 km. Priced at $799K, it's a bit above the nearby median sold price of around $700K, but the private yard and main-floor living make it worth a look.
