There's something about an older home that just feels like home. Welcome to 1282 1st Avenue W in Owen Sound, a charming 2-storey home filled with character, comfortable living spaces and a layout that offers more flexibility than you might expect. The first thing you'll appreciate is the beautiful green space and harbour views directly across the road. Next, step inside to a bright dining room that opens naturally into the living spaces, creating an inviting place for everyday life, family dinners and entertaining. The spacious kitchen offers plenty of cabinetry and counter space, stainless steel appliances, including a natural gas stove, and a peninsula with casual seating, while the main-floor laundry option adds everyday convenience. There is also a washer and gas dryer on the lower level. One of the home's most useful surprises is the additional main-floor room, currently used as a craft and creative space. Whether you need a third bedroom, home office, hobby room, playroom or cozy den, it's a space that can easily adapt as your needs change. A convenient 2-piece bathroom completes the main level. Upstairs you'll find two comfortable bedrooms with warm wood flooring and plenty of personality, along with an updated 3-piece bathroom featuring a glass-enclosed shower and crisp, modern finishes. Central air and forced-air natural gas heating keep the home comfortable throughout the seasons. Outside, enjoy a fenced yard, deck, patio and gazebo, plus private parking. Located in Owen Sound with schools, the hospital, public transit and everyday amenities nearby, this is a home that combines the character buyers love with the functionality they actually need.
