Welcome to 608 Broadview Ave - Sitting on a quiet street surrounded by multi- million dollar homes, this unique property highlights the old adage that it is better to own the smallest home in the best neighbourhood than the biggest home in an average one. Opportunities to own in the prestigious Couchiching Point community are rare & often beyond the reach of most buyers. 608 Broadview offers an affordable entry into a blue-chip waterfront community where location helps support long-term value. Offering 2 bedrooms & 1.5 baths, this charming 1,100 sq ft bungalow sits just two blocks from Lake Couchiching. This home delivers comfortable single-level living with no stairs to navigate & 2 brand-new heat pumps providing efficient year-round heating/cooling. The large fenced-in backyard creates a private, family & pet-friendly outdoor space, while the detached garage, double driveway & generous parking accommodate up to five vehicles, (room for a boat & trailer). The 144 sq ft insulated & heated Bunkie is ideal as a guest suite, home office or exercise studio. R2 zoning creates income opportunities, with the insulated & heated Bunkie offering rental suite potential through the addition of a kitchenette and bathroom- or he/she shed/yoga space/home office! Municipal sewer & water means no septic upgrade required. Location is where this property truly shines. You're just steps from 65-acre J.B. Tudhope Memorial Park, featuring waterfront trails, beaches, sports fields, a splash pad, playgrounds & some of Orillia's most spectacular lakefront scenery.
