Cross Streets: North St E/Matchedash N. ** Directions: West St. N, North St. E to Matchedash. Welcome to this lovingly maintained raised bungalow, with over 3,000 sq.ft. of finished living space, nestled on a park-like lot in Orillia's desirable North Ward. Just steps from Hillcrest Park, Couchiching Golf Club, and a short walk to downtown Orillia, and the beautiful waterfront, this spacious home offers an ideal setting to raise a family. Cherished by the same family since its construction in 1974, this home has been thoughtfully expanded and updated over the years. The main floor features three bedrooms, a warm and inviting oak kitchen with ample cabinetry, a bright breakfast room with walkout to the deck, and a 4-piece bath. Hardwood floors flow throughout, adding warmth and character. In 2005, a stunning addition was completed, creating a sun-filled family room with vaulted ceilings and a striking stone woodburning fireplace. The addition also includes a luxurious primary suite with a 4-piece ensuite featuring a soaker tub and separate shower, along with direct access to the rear deck and serene, fenced backyard surrounded by mature shade trees and garden beds. The fully finished basement offers a level walk-in from the side yard, making it ideal for an in-law suite. It includes a fourth bedroom, office, rec room, 3-piece bath, abundant storage, and a workshop area. The original single garage was converted into additional living space but still retains a 10'10" x 11'6" garage/storage area, with the potential to be restored to its full 23' depth if desired. This is a rare opportunity to own a well-loved home in one of Orillia's most established neighbourhoods-don't miss your chance to make it yours. (id:27476)
