199 Ellen St, Atwood
Welcome to 199 Ellen St, a charming century home overflowing with character located in the quiet family friendly town of Atwood, just 10 minutes from Listowel and a 45 min drive to Kitchener/Waterloo. This 5 bed, 2 bath, 2.5 story has beautiful curb appeal with an inviting wrap-around porch, solid red brick, lush landscaping, and a stone driveway to fit 6+ cars. Inside, the timeless appeal is seamlessly blended with modern upgrades from the elegant detail of the wood trim, stained glass windows and hardwood throughout to the classically renovated kitchen and bathrooms. The large entryway takes you to a cozy living room with large windows to let in plenty of natural light, and a gas fireplace where you will love to relax after a long day. From here you can separate the large formal dining room with traditional pocket doors. You will also find a den/office on this main level which is big enough to use to create a 6th bedroom on the main floor. Down the hall from the foyer is the gorgeous, modern-meets-rustic kitchen, with custom cream cabinetry and island, sharp black granite countertops, gas stove and wood paneled ceiling, combining tradition and luxury. From here there is a preserved original door with stained glass to take you straight to the veranda, or you can head through the mudroom where you'll find main floor laundry for your convenience and a classic yet modern updated 3 pce bath. The oversized sliders will lead you to the peace and tranquility of the huge, treed backyard where you can enjoy the stunning gardens or relax on the private, well designed deck with a bar, or under the canopy where you can cool off under the fan. Upstairs there is an exquisitely designed electric fireplace with white shiplap, another fully updated 4 pce bathroom, and 5 spacious bedrooms with one leading to your upper balcony, a great place to enjoy a morning coffee. If you're looking for more space or extra storage, there's a staircase to an attic with 500 sq feet to make your own. If you're looking to get away from the big city, this home will suit you perfectly. close to snowmobile trails, community centre with splash pad, restaurants, and great local schools.
