101 - 57 Suffolk Street W, Guelph

Forget typical cookie-cutter condo living. Tucked away in one of Guelph's most desirable downtown neighbourhoods, Unit 101 at King Edward Place offers the security and ease of a luxury bungalow within a private, 9-unit boutique landmark. Originally built as a turn-of-the-century schoolhouse and masterfully reimagined by the Shortreed family, this exclusive residence flawlessly pairs rich heritage with modern peace of mind. Massive 2-foot-thick brick walls create an incredibly quiet, energy-efficient interior, wrapped in natural light from seven oversized casement windows. Inside, the character speaks for itself: an exposed brick accent wall anchors a custom kitchen featuring a built-in oven, while the generous living room centers around a cozy gas fireplace. The clever layout features a spacious primary bedroom with a jet-tub ensuite, alongside a versatile second bedroom/den and a second full bathroom - perfect for a home office or overnight guests. Enjoy the ultimate blend of historic charm, downtown walkability, and lock-and-leave security in this meticulously maintained, smoke-free and pet-free building. (2024 Gas/Hydro approx. $2,400/yr)
