It is rare to find a property that carries its history so effortlessly while refusing to act its age. Standing proud across from Exhibition Park, this striking Heritage Victorian century home serves up serious curb appeal with its classic slate roof, stained glass accents, and a covered wrap-around porch made for lazy Sunday mornings. Inside, the craftsmanship is impossible to replicate today. We are talking original burled oak woodwork and massive twelve-inch baseboards that give the home a grounded, regal presence befitting the Royal City.But this isn't a museum; it has been thoughtfully modernized from the inside out. The main hub is a designer kitchen equipped with high-end appliances, flowing into expansive living spaces anchored by a cozy fireplace. With seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms, the layout offers incredible flexibility. It effortlessly handles a bustling multi-generational family, a premium work-from-home setup for professionals who actually want distinction between life and business, or a lucrative income-generating setup like an Airbnb or boutique bed and breakfast. Comfort is dialed in via a network of nine heat pumps paired with cozy radiant heating, while solid, thick-walled construction keeps the indoor climate stable and the city noise out.Outside, the property continues to impress without demanding all your free weekends. The lush, professionally designed gardens and private backyard-complete with a fish pond and covered pergola-are fully serviced by an underground irrigation system. There is also parking for seven vehicles and entirely underground wiring to keep your views uncluttered. Located in one of Guelph's most established, quiet neighborhoods, you are just a ten-minute stroll from downtown dining, shops, and the library, with tennis courts and sports fields right across the street. It is historical elegance with a highly versatile modern script. Come see how your future fits into its history.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $514/sqft, this is priced below the area average. This could represent genuine value, but let's investigate why. In my experience, underpriced homes often have deferred maintenance, unfavourable layouts, or motivated sellers. I'll help you determine which it is.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Guelph's current market, desirable homes often receive multiple offers within 5-7 days. If you're seriously interested, I recommend booking a showing immediately. However, never let urgency override due diligence - we'll still do proper inspections.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Guelph are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Larger Home Realities
At 3,500 sqft, this is a substantial home. Budget approximately $400-600/month more for utilities compared to an average-sized home. Maintenance costs scale with size too - roof, HVAC, and cleaning all cost more. That said, space is a luxury that's hard to add later, and larger homes often have better resale in family-oriented neighbourhoods.
Excellent Flexibility
With 7 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Guelph.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 7 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.
