CHARMING FAMILY HOME ON A LARGE LOT WITH RECENT UPGRADES THROUGHOUT! This beautifully maintained raised bungalow sits on a spacious 91 x 196 ft lot in a sought-after neighbourhood, backing onto the Thornton Community Centre and arena with a park, playground, and splash pad steps away. Enjoy the convenience of being minutes to Hwy 400, a library, Georgian Downs, and parks, with Barrie less than 15 minutes away. The home has been updated throughout, featuring a freshly painted main floor and basement, sleek bamboo flooring, and a refreshed kitchen and bathroom with timeless finishes. The basement features a cozy rec room with a gas fireplace, while an additional space offers the potential to add a 4th bedroom.
