A remarkable transformation defines this elegant Waterfront century home, where timeless character meets thoughtful stylish upgrades. Set on one of Owen Sound's most desirable streets, this stately & distinguished residence offers a rare opportunity to enjoy refined living in a truly picturesque setting. Striking curb appeal draws you in, while the private backyard opens onto the sparkling waters of the Sydenham River creating a serene, ever-changing natural backdrop that can be enjoyed year-round. Inside, this impressive home has been beautifully revitalized. Carpeting has been removed revealing the original hardwood floors that have been restored, now showcasing their full warmth and character throughout. The home's original wiring has also been replaced, offering peace of mind alongside its historic charm. The main floor features inviting principal rooms, including a comfortable living room, a formal dining space ideal for entertaining, a convenient 2-piece bath and a well-designed kitchen with an adjoining breakfast nook overlooking the river. A standout feature is the sunroom, filled with natural light and framed by expansive windows that capture breathtaking views of the river, gardens and surrounding wildlife in every season. Follow the newly refinished wood staircase to the upper level where a thoughtfully designed layout includes a cozy reading nook, a spacious 4-piece bath and a generous primary bedroom complete with a bright office or sitting area perfect for quiet mornings or working from home. An unfinished loft offers exciting potential for additional living space, studio, or guest accommodations, while the attached inside entry potting shed provides practical enclosed storage. This is more than a home .... it's a stunning yet charming Riverside Retreat where history, nature and traditional comfort come together seamlessly.
