Welcome to 29 Tecumseth Street in Orillia, a distinctive 212-storey century home where history meets modern updates.

A bright 3-season room provides access to the backyard and a separate basement entrance. Upstairs, the second level offers two separate wings encompassing four bedrooms,including a primary suite with a walk-in dressing room thoughtfully converted from a former bedroom. A 4-piece main bath with tiled shower and convenient laundry closet, along with an additional 2-piece bath, complete the level. The third floor features a fifth bedroom with its own ensuite and classic clawfoot tub, plus attic storage. The full unfinished basement offers a rec room area, additional laundry hookups, abundant storage, and a walk-up to the sunroom.
