Description & details

Own a remarkable piece of Barrie's history at 16 Blake Street. Known historically as "Foxley," this distinguished 1916 residence forms part of the city's architectural heritage, offering timeless character and exceptional space in a beautiful setting. With 7 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and 4,446 sq. ft. above grade, the home provides room to gather, entertain and create spaces that suit your lifestyle. Set on an expansive 188 ft. x 270 ft. lot, the grounds are a defining feature: remarkably private and surrounded by mature trees, they create the feeling of a secluded retreat in the middle of a forest. Enjoy peaceful mornings, outdoor gatherings and the beauty of the changing seasons, all within easy reach of downtown Barrie, Kempenfelt Bay, waterfront trails, parks, restaurants and cultural attractions. A rare opportunity to become the next steward of a storied home where historic character, generous proportions and extraordinary privacy come together.

The data only goes so far — condition, light and layout are worth seeing in person, with a home inspection, before you commit.
