146 West Street, Orillia

Built circa 1935, this one-and-a-half storey home, with a main floor addition in 1978, has lots of room. It's located in a central northward neighbourhood, within easy walking distance of Couchiching Beach Park, the Orillia Opera House, public library, downtown shops & restaurants, as well as schools and churches. The home has an amazing floor plan and many original finishes, including hardwood floors and trim work on the main floor and a coiffured ceiling plus plate rail in the dining room. The eat-in kitchen, updated in the 1990s will surprise you with its oak cabinetry, under cabinet lighting, granite countertops and brick accent wall with built-in bookcase. There is also a 2-pc powder room plus a walkout to a backyard deck from the kitchen. As well as enlarging the kitchen space, the addition included a sunken family room with wall-to-wall brick fireplace, built-in bookcases, pine wainscotting and a stained glass window. The full basement is approximately 6ft. high and used for storage and laundry facilities. The level lot features mature shade trees and a granite stone patio with potential as an outdoor living space. The single driveway can accommodate parking for three cars. Whether you are looking for a fix and flip project, or want to settle in to raise your family, this home has so much potential! It's vacant and easy to view.
