You'll notice the new kitchen right away - brand-new stainless steel appliances that have never been used, plus a dining area looking down into the family room. It's a back-split, so layout's a bit quirky, but that works if you want separate zones for living and sleeping. The main floor has a formal living room with a bay window facing south, tons of natural light. Step out from the dining area to a side terrace with sunshade and gas BBQ hookup. The family room has a gas fireplace and patio doors to the backyard. Down there's also a fourth bedroom and full bath - ideal for guests or in-laws. Upstairs, three more bedrooms and another full bath. Finished basement adds a big rec room, could fit a gym or pool table. Exterior is brick and vinyl, concrete foundation, attached garage plus parking for up to five cars. Lot is 49.2 by 103.9 feet, so a decent yard. Heating is forced air gas, central AC with air exchanger. Taxes run about $6,154 a year. Located on a quiet street in Owen Sound's Upper West Side, just over a kilometer to Harrison Park and a short drive to downtown restaurants, schools, and the transit terminal. Priced at $649,900, that's above the neighborhood median of $434,000, but you're paying for the new kitchen and the extra bedroom setup. Comparable sold at $459,900 on average, so expect some negotiation.
