Description & details

CHARACTER-FILLED CENTURY HOME ON A 70 X 130 FT LOT ACROSS FROM FAIRGROUNDS PARK & MOMENTS FROM HISTORIC MAIN STREET! A big in-town lot across from the park is already a win, but add wood beams, a vaulted kitchen, a 3-season room, and a spiral staircase, and 621 Lydia Street has the character you don't often find. Set directly across from Fairgrounds Park with a playground, ball diamonds and green space, this home places schools, transit, shopping and restaurants close by, with Historic Main Street, Fairy Lake Park, Riverwalk Commons, Upper Canada Mall and Southlake Health all within a quick drive. Mature trees frame the 70 x 130 ft lot, complete with driveway parking for 4, a shed and a large yard with room for gardens, play space and outdoor dining. The main level is full of personality, featuring exposed wood beams, warm wood trim, hardwood flooring, cheerful paint tones and a spiral staircase. A large vaulted kitchen offers wood cabinetry, tile flooring, a skylight, plenty of prep space and a walkout to the 3-season room, where park views make morning coffee feel extra special. A main floor 3-piece bathroom with a clawfoot tub adds vintage charm, while the upper level features 2 bedrooms and a 3-piece bathroom, including a primary bedroom with a walkout to an elevated deck. Zoning may permit an accessory dwelling unit, bed and breakfast establishment, home occupation and private home daycare, offering added flexibility for a range of future uses. With a walkable Newmarket location, a generous 70 x 130 ft lot and character throughout, this #HomeToStay is full of details that make it feel anything but ordinary.

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