Cross Streets: Little Ave/Yonge St. ** Directions: Little Ave/Firman Dr/Herrell Ave/Knicely Rd. A SOUTH BARRIE FAMILY HOME WITH 4 BEDROOMS, AN IN-GROUND POOL & BACKYARD BAR! You may start planning pool days, backyard dinners, family parties and late nights by the bar before you even finish the showing. This South Barrie home has the backyard people usually hope someone else invites them to, with an in-ground pool, custom outdoor bar beneath a 12 x 12 ft pergola, multiple seating areas, mature trees and a 12 x 20 ft shed. Start with a swim, grab a seat at the bar and stay outside well into the evening, because this fully fenced, hardscaped yard makes leaving home surprisingly easy to talk yourself out of. The house keeps up with the lifestyle, offering 1,671 finished sq. ft. across four levels with a carpet-free interior and four bedrooms arranged to give everyone a little more separation. Two bedrooms are grouped on the upper level, including a spacious primary with two double closets, while two additional bedrooms on the lower levels make the layout especially well suited to multi-generational living, older kids or overnight guests. Hardwood flooring runs through the main living and dining area, while the galley-style kitchen features extensive cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a tiled backsplash and double sink, with pantry cabinetry and a walkout keeping the backyard just steps away. The lower-level rec room adds pot lights, a wood stove and exposed brick backdrop, while the lower bedroom and adjacent bathroom feature built-in heated floors. Even the enclosed front porch has heated flooring. Add an attached single garage, four driveway spaces, newer blown-in attic insulation and a Painswick location close to parks, schools, shopping, recreation, Highway 400, GO transit and Barrie's waterfront, and you may find yourself volunteering your house for every get-together.
