About This Property

This is the storybook house...Perched up the hill behind the wrought iron gate, sheltered beneath a canopy of mature trees. The one you've slowed down to admire, curious about what life inside might be like. Built in 1880, this iconic Victorian is woven into the fabric of Grand Valley's history. Lovingly restored for modern living while preserving the character that made it unforgettable. Set on a private 99.09 x 149.77 ft corner lot w/ lush perennial gardens. Spend slow mornings on the wraparound porch watching life go by, host summer dinners beneath the trees, admire the view from the Juliet balcony above, or simply savour the magic of a home that inspires creativity and connection. Inside, 10 ft ceilings, hardwood floors, abundant natural light and beautifully updated radiators blend century charm with thoughtful renovations completed only a few years ago. The renovated kitchen is spacious, bright + functional, featuring S/S appliances, custom island w/ B/I dishwasher + easy flow into the heart of the home. An oversized mudroom + main floor laundry room offer conveniences rarely found in a home of this era, w/ direct access to the backyard & no trips to the stone basement w/ baskets in hand. Perhaps the most extraordinary surprise of all: each of the 3 generous bedrooms offers its own W/I closet and private 4 PC ensuite. In a home built in 1880, that's almost unheard of. The New detached double garage is a destination in itself. Heated, air conditioned + beautifully finished, it's currently enjoyed as a theatre + music space but could easily become home office, artist's studio, workshop, fitness space or creative retreat. With its separation from the main home + exceptional proximity to downtown, the possibilities are endless. New windows, gutters, 100-amp service, copper wiring throughout, heat pump, jet pump for the well, this home offers the romance of the past with the confidence of modern improvements.
