117 Metcalfe Street

This truly remarkable historic home is a careful blend of classic features like high ceilings, stained glass, crown moldings with a carefully updated interior that includes an open concept kitchen, new hardwood flooring on the first and second floors, and more. Situated on a large, deep ravine lot with no rear neighbours in St. Thomas’s Courtyard District, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to live on one of the nicest streets in the city. You’ll be captivated by details like the double vestibule doors with leaded glass inserts. The main level is perfect for busy families, with a family room anchored by a gas fireplace and backlit by a large window, and conversations can flow easily to the redesigned, chef-worthy kitchen. Equal parts stylish and functional, there is lots of workspace on quartz counters, gas range with designer range hood, modern cabinets, all framed by a marble backsplash. The large formal dining room can host meals of any size, from formal dinner parties to holiday gatherings, with ease. The formal living room has a classic wood-burning fireplace with tile surround and wood mantel. Upstairs there is an office nook that could also make a great homework station, plus a large formal office with a panoramic rear view of the property. The primary bedroom offers a new 3 piece ensuite with walk-in shower, marble vanity, and all-new heated floors. In addition to the other two bedrooms, there is a spa-like 5 piece main bath with its own rainfall shower, soaker tub, and dual marble vanity. On the top floor there’s a large bonus space with wet bar, perfect for a game space, media centre, or hobby room. An all-season sunroom provides a great view of the fenced yard with two-tier deck, fire pit, plus room for a future pool. With the basement workshop, there’s something for everyone. This is your chance to own a historic home that seamlessly blends the updates you want with the historic charm you love, all in a private, treed setting.
