12 Highland Avenue, Barrie, ON L4M 1N1

Welcome to the east ends best-kept secret. Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac just steps from Barries North Shore Trail, waterfront, marina, and downtown core - this all-brick raised bungalow is the mid-century modern dream you didn't know existed.Inside, the home has been styled and tastefully renovated. The new kitchen is the showstopper - sleek lines, custom finishes, and a layout that opens up the home without losing its warmth. Updated main floor, vaulted ceilings, and a double-sided fireplace that anchors the living space with style. Beautiful walnut details bring character, while modern touches make it move-in ready. With easy potential to create a fourth bedroom, the lower level is bright and functional, with a large rec room, full bath, and laundry. But heres what makes this property truly rare: the lot and layout with seasonal water views offer incredible expansion potential. Whether its building a full addition off the back, creating a garage with a second-storey suite, or extending the existing footprint to add serious square footage - this is the kind of flexibility you rarely find in a location like this. The regraded yard, custom shed, and updated fencing only make that vision more achievable. Add in the upgraded electrical service (200 amps), a high-efficiency furnace (2020), and a three-season sunroom with bonus storage - and you've got a home thats not just beautiful now, but built for growth.In a neighbourhood where homes are held for generations, 12 Highland is your chance to get in, expand over time, and create something exceptional.
