There's something about life by Georgian Bay. Maybe it's having the marina minutes away, beaches around the corner, trails out your back door and four seasons of reasons to be outside... Or maybe it's coming home to a place like this. Welcome to 289 Centennial Drive, a custom-built bungalow tucked at the end of the street in one of Midland's newer estate communities, where the neighbourhood gives way to trees, trails and a little more breathing room. Only a few years old, this home was built for the way people actually want to live. Bright, open and beautifully connected, with 3 spacious bedrooms, 2.5 baths and a primary suite that feels like its own retreat, complete with heated ensuite floors and a generous walk-in closet. The custom kitchen opens right into the dining and living spaces, making everything from Sunday morning coffee to a house full of friends feel easy....and the current owners didn't stop where the builder did. They've invested over $75,000 outside with a paved driveway, landscape stonework, irrigation, standby generator and hot tub, turning a new build into a finished home you can simply move into and enjoy. Out back, pour a glass of wine, hop in the hot tub or settle onto the patio with nothing behind you but lawn, trees and walking trails. No rear neighbours. No rooftops staring back at you. Just privacy.The oversized insulated garage has room for the cars, bikes, golf clubs and Georgian Bay toys, plus direct access into the basement. Downstairs, 9-foot ceilings and that separate garage entrance open up some pretty exciting possibilities for whatever you have in mind next...and when you do feel like leaving home? Downtown Midland, Penetanguishene, Georgian Bay, beaches, marinas, golf and skiing are all just minutes away. New enough to be easy. Finished enough to feel established. Private enough to forget you're in town....289 Centennial might just be your excuse to spend a little more time by the Bay.
