Bobcaygeon – Jiminy Cricket on John Street
They don’t build them like this anymore…really they don’t. This five-bedroom, two-story brick home is for the discerning buyer that has an appreciation for history, craftmanship, quality and a lifestyle only a home of prominence in a small town can offer. Driving or walking down the street, this much-loved long-time family home commands your attention. Cars slow down, people walk and stare. It demands attention with its expansive front windows, long two-sided front porch and the quaint more-than-charming mini-barn stable at the side. Five good-sized bedrooms each with one or two tall and wide windows. Two very much out-of-date bathrooms, a second floor open porch ideal for snoozing on those hot summer nights, hidden pine sub floors and, get ready…a set of back stairs!! Reopen the stairs when you renovate the 60’s kitchen and watch your kids run up the front and down the back! The front hall is impressive with its oak stairs, banister and wainscotting.

More Details
Built for entertaining with two parlors and a living room. One for the ladies, one for the men and the kids in the other. Rarely do you see formal dining rooms like this, with big windows, room for a table for ten, high ceiling, stunning oak or fir wainscotting with solid wooden doors on two sides. Imagine one for guests and one for staff. A solid well-maintained home, loved, well-used by a large family and waiting to be done-up by the next fortunate home owners. The lot is large, with mature trees, semi-private with the most charming mini-barn or stable. Sure you could use it as a garage, but really it’s ideal for a workshop, antique store, playhouse or yes, the ‘she shed’ or ‘man cave’. Build the garage out back at the end of the long driveway. It has endless potential. Even the basement has been well maintained, with cement floor, stone foundation and large above-ground windows. There is a lot of house, with charm and character rarely seen in a home these days. You can’t help but feel it is a happy home, filled in years gone by with love, laughter and way too much fun. Work with what is there and created your own history giving it the modern-day conveniences it needs. Close to all the amenities the Village has to offer, maybe a bit too close to the more than delicious Kawartha Dairy with the Trent-Severn Waterway and Sturgeon Lake at the end of the next block. Just under two hours from the GTA. If you have dreamed of a grand home in a small Village surrounded by cottage country then it does not get any better than this. This will tick many of your boxes.
