Description

Meet 78 Wallace. This two-story, all-brick home has been lovingly cared for by its original owners and now it's ready for its next chapter. Uniquely backing onto Emma King Elementary School, it's a rare find for young families: kids can walk to school and even come home for lunch. Inside, you'll find three bedrooms upstairs plus a fourth in the finished basement, which also features a three-piece bathroom. The kitchen and upstairs bathroom have both been beautifully updated. The main floor living room centres around a cozy gas fireplace, with a separate dining room, a small workspace and a convenient two-piece powder room, rounding out the layout. Outside, a massive driveway offers parking for four cars, plus a new garage door and new front door for extra peace of mind. The backyard is private and features a massive shed with gazebo - ideal for storage or a summer hangout. Conveniently located in Northwest Barrie, you're just minutes from Barrie's Golden Mile and all its shopping and amenities. Whether you're buying your first home or looking to downsize without compromise, 78 Wallace checks every box.
