114 Blake Street is a rare, one-acre infill parcel just 1.5 blocks from Barrie's iconic waterfront, positioned in the heart of the city's historic east end "who's who" neighbourhood for professionals. This property's value is anchored in its exclusive location where you can walk to downtown dining, the Saturday Farmer's Market, or waterfront trails, yet enjoy peace and quiet when festivals arrive. Unlike typical infill sites, 114 Blake offers a unique opportunity for developers to create a boutique, low-density project such as elegant townhomes tailored to established professionals and retirees looking to right-size without leaving behind the community, friends, and familiar comforts they love. The mature perimeter tree canopy, walkable setting, and legacy of distinction make this site the perfect blend of yesteryear meets today, for thoughtful development. East end Barrie is missing options for those seeking to downsize without compromising on lifestyle or location and this property answers that unmet need. Surrounded by long-standing neighbours and a welcoming community, this is a once-in-a-generation chance to bring a new chapter to Barrie's most established residents. Being sold under Power of Sale.
