With a private landscaped backyard, close proximity to Guelph Lakes Conservation area, a newer floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and decor that makes you want to curl up with a good book and stay awhile, this peaceful oasis in the city is one you'll want to call home. Enjoy your morning coffee in the inviting backyard with its gazebo, urban landscaping, custom fencing, and eye-catching shed. Grab some inspiration at night in a seat under the twinkling patio lights. Bring your friends for a barbecue, with plenty of driveway parking conveniently located at the back of the house for easy access to the backyard get-together. Inside, find a relaxing and private space with updated flooring throughout the main and upper levels. Enjoy baking on a spring afternoon in the kitchen with lots of counter space and brand new appliances. Later in the evening, you can retire to the full rec room in the basement with a new, and grand, floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. This space also includes soundproofing that will either draw you in to reflective, quiet time or encourage a loud game with friends without disturbing the sleeping kids, the choice is yours. When it's time to head to bed, find three upper bedrooms with a private master suite, including full ensuite, and separate bathroom for guests or kids. Pull warm, fresh sheets just before you head to bed, with the upper laundry just steps from the bedrooms. When the sun rises again, you can visit the Guelph Lakes conservation area, mere minutes away, for soccer games, paddles on the lake, or walks through the trail. Work from home in one of the extra bedrooms, easily set up as an office, or in the bonus space in the basement. When you have to make the drive to the office, school, or run some errands, just jump on Woodlawn for easy access to anywhere in the city. This home invites you in from the moment you walk through the gate. Don't miss it.

How this lease stacks up against the local rental market
Estimated Monthly Budget
Things to Confirm Before Signing
· Are utilities included, or separate?
· How many parking spots are included?
· Is the landlord open to a 1-year or 2-year lease?
· Are pets and small renovations (paint, hooks) allowed?
· When was the last rent increase, if there is a prior tenant?
Utility estimates are approximate and vary by season, habits, and what the landlord includes. Always confirm inclusions with the listing agent.
Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fairly Priced Rental
At $3,150/mo, this is in line with typical 3-bedroom rents in Guelph (~$3,500/mo). The rent itself may be firm, but there's often room to negotiate on lease terms — move-in date, appliance inclusions, or parking.
Market Position
At 38 days on site, this property has had reasonable exposure. It hasn't sold immediately (which often indicates overpricing), but isn't languishing either. There's likely room for a 3-5% negotiation from asking price.
Townhouse Benefits
Townhouses offer an excellent balance of space and maintenance. You get more room than a condo with lower upkeep than a detached home. Key things to verify: whether it's freehold or condo-titled (affects fees and rules), and the condition of shared walls for noise considerations. Townhouses in Guelph have shown strong appreciation as families seek more space.
Starter Home Potential
3 bedrooms works well for couples planning families or small families with one child. Consider whether you might outgrow the space in 5-7 years. If so, factor in potential moving costs when making your decision. Alternatively, some buyers convert a bedroom to an office and make it work long-term.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 4 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
Lease Terms to Negotiate
Don't just focus on the monthly rent — the lease terms matter just as much. I always advise my rental clients to clarify: what's included (parking, storage, utilities), the lease length options, the landlord's policy on renewals, and whether small personalizations like painting are permitted. These details can make or break your experience over 12–24 months.
