A BACKSPLIT WITH MULTI-GENERATIONAL POTENTIAL & A PERMIT FOR A PROPOSED DUPLEX CONVERSION! Maybe you need more room for your family. Maybe a house with in-law capability is part of the plan. Maybe the duplex conversion opportunity is what gets your attention. Whatever brings you through the door, this detached backsplit gives you 5 bedrooms, multiple living areas and a floor plan that can work in more than one way. The ground level features a kitchen with ample cabinetry and a tiled backsplash, along with both a family room and separate living room with a fireplace. A bedroom and powder room complete this level, while three more bedrooms and a full bathroom are grouped on the upper level. The finished basement adds a fifth bedroom and another full bathroom, giving extended family, older kids or overnight guests valuable separation. The City of Barrie has issued a building permit for the proposed residential duplex conversion, with approved conversion drawings already in place and a permit that may be transferable to a future owner with City approval, reducing the preliminary work for a buyer looking to advance the property's income potential. An interlock walkway leads to the front door, with an attached single-car garage and space for two more vehicles in the driveway, while the fully fenced backyard adds a deck, lawn, mature landscaping and garden shed. Georgian College and RVH are only minutes away, with quick access to Highway 400, shopping and restaurants.
