With the elegant landscaping, crushed stone driveway and charming, covered porch, you could be forgiven for expecting a bit of a throwback.
But 11 Robinson Avenue is a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home, located in downtown Guelph, that surprises and delights. It’s a classic two-storey, red-brick century home that boasts undeniable curb appeal, southern exposure and a masterfully executed renovation.
The home was originally built in 1908 and has been completely redone from top to bottom. The work was done recently too, with all of the renovations completed in the past 5 years. It is a unique home that has at once retained its old world charm and has amazing finishes that represent the best in modern design.
The interiors are light and bright, featuring light-coloured flooring and black-trimmed windows. The home also has a lovely flow throughout, from the entryway to the generously sized living room and separate dining room. Large windows flood each space with natural light.
The heart of this home is the completely renovated kitchen. It features high-end appliances, a waterfall island, tons of storage space and easy access to the beautifully landscaped backyard and BBQ area.
With such a great-sized living and dining space, the main floor is ideal for hosting family and friends, as well as just enjoying and making the most of everyday family living.
The bathrooms are stunning and would look right at home in the most fashionable décor magazines.
The second-floor bathroom features a freestanding tub, walk-in shower, large vanity and oversized tiles; it is a beautiful update that makes the space feel like a true oasis.
The second level of this home also has two bedrooms, an office and a walk-through closet.
The primary bedroom has to be seen to be believed. It is its own separate living space, with tons of extra room and two impressive skylights with views of The Church of Our Lady.
The basement offers even more living space, including a big rec room and a new 3-piece bathroom.
11 Robinson Avenue sits on a corner lot and has a great backyard/side yard combination. There is a newly laid patio and a modern pergola with a sunshade; it’s all set up so you can just move in and enjoy.
The home is part of the amazing Sunny Acres neighbourhood. You can walk to the Guelph Farmers’ Market and an array of great restaurants in just over 10 minutes. There are several schools nearby and you’re just blocks from recreational amenities, such as the Royal Recreation Trail and Silvercreek Skatepark.
