BAYSHORE BUNGALOW WITH OPEN CONCEPT INTERIOR, FENCED YARD & WALKOUT BASEMENT WITH IN-LAW POTENTIAL! 42 Kell Place is a raised bungalow in Barrie's sought-after Bayshore neighbourhood with bright open living spaces, a basement that practically feels above grade, in-law potential and a backyard with more greenery and privacy than you expect to find in the city. Large windows pull natural light across the open concept main floor, where the kitchen features breakfast bar seating, stainless steel appliances, ample cabinetry, a double sink, tile flooring and a walk-in pantry. The dining area walks out to an elevated deck overlooking the fully fenced backyard, while the primary bedroom features a walk-in closet and a 3-piece ensuite with a large corner soaker tub, and main floor laundry keeps everyday routines moving smoothly. Downstairs, the mostly above-grade basement offers oversized windows, a spacious recreation room with sliding glass walkout to the lower deck, a third bedroom, a 3-piece bathroom and a separate entrance from the garage. A kitchenette with sink is already in place, with electrical roughed in behind the cabinetry for future full kitchen potential, making the lower level well-suited for multi-generational living. Outside, two decks, mature trees, lush greenery, a storage shed and full fencing create a backyard that feels tucked away. Updated mechanics, an owned water heater, a newer toilet in the main floor 4-piece bathroom, an attached 2-car garage and double-wide driveway parking for 6 more vehicles add the practical features buyers appreciate. Set on a quiet, low-traffic cul-de-sac close to the library, trails, schools, parks, shopping, dining, transit and commuter routes.
