Original details show up in the stone foundation, wood and brick exterior, and the layout of an established home.

Outside, the lot has southern exposure, a paved driveway that parks three, and a fully fenced private yard. It's a 10-minute walk to Guelph Collegiate Vocational Institute and Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School, both 0.6 km away.
