4 Bed 3 Bath 2 Storey Style

Property Description

Located in historic downtown Orangeville, this beautifully modernized century home known as the McKim House was built in 1887 by local farmers John and Catharine McKim. Entering the home you’re immediately struck by the hardwood floors throughout the open sitting room which seamlessly flows into the impressive kitchen. "Modern Farmhouse" inspired and renovated in 2017, the kitchen combines the charm of old and new with a built-in window seat, extra-large apron sink, arabesque tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, leathered granite countertop, an eat-at butcher block island and a desirable walk-in pantry. 
The main floor also offers a good-sized living room, formal dining room and stylish powder room. The stunning and well designed primary suite was created upstairs to include built-in wardrobes with window seat and a gorgeous three piece ensuite bath. As an added bonus, the primary suite now has direct access to the inviting covered balcony overlooking the beautifully treed Parsons Street. The second level is finished with three additional bedrooms serviced by an updated four piece bath. Within walking distance of shops and restaurants, this home maintains many original features while offering great additions such as the fantastic south-facing sunroom which walks out to the deck and looks into the large backyard filled with mature trees and perennial gardens.  Boasting the modern convenience of a walk-in pantry, primary ensuite and exposed brick breezeway/mudroom connecting the home to the attached garage, while providing the charm and character that only a century home can bestow, the McKim House is an ideal blend of past and present. 

Neighbourhood

DOWNTOWN

Established as early as Orangeville itself, the Downtown neighbourhood is arguably one of the most desired locations to live. Victorian homes, tall trees, and large lots characterize this neighbourhood, located right in the heart of Orangeville. Development began in the 1800's, and focused on Broadway and the immediately surrounding streets. Names of many of the original owners have achieved local celebrity status, such as Ketchum, Morrow, Riddell, McKitrick, Foley and Faulkner.
