29 Lynwood Place Guelph, Ontario N1G 2V9

$1,249,000

Here is the opportunity to become the next steward of a property on a street where homes rarely come up for sale. Tucked away on an exclusive and quiet cul-de-sac in Guelph's most coveted Old University neighbourhood, this home is a testament to tradition and a slower, more intentional way of life. Held by the same family for 66 years, this property presents an era where neighbours know each other by name and children played freely on the street until the lights flicker on. The true crown jewel is the massive pie-shaped lot. Spanning approximately half an acre, the yard provides a sanctuary nearly impossible to find within the city today. The grounds are anchored by a majestic maple tree in the front yard, planted with pride in 1967 to mark Canada's Centennial. Under the vast canopy, you will find privacy and shade that invites you to putter in the garden or host summer lawn games. Designed in 1956, this bungalow prioritizes both togetherness and tranquil retreats with the option of exclusive main floor living. A large foyer flows into principal rooms, including an expansive dining room ready for multi-generational feasts and a living room anchored by an original fireplace and marble mantle. Practicality meets privacy with a clever wing design; the primary bedroom with an ensuite sits on the west side, while additional bedrooms occupy the east wing. The kitchen dinette offers stunning vistas of the rear acreage, tempting you to linger over morning coffee. The lower level extends the living space with a recreation room, bedroom, and ample storage. For those dreaming of a grander footprint, the sheer scale of this lot easily accommodates a substantial addition. The location is unparalleled for families, offering top-tier schools, the University of Guelph, and lush parks nearby. This is a rare chance to honour the past while building your future on one of the finest lots in the city. Experience the simplicity and grace of a home loved for a lifetime. (id:42776)
