| This remarkable 1893 Queen Anne Revival offers a rare blend of architectural beauty and proven financial success. The estate operates as a licensed bed & breakfast, including a fully renovated carriage house featuring two independent rental units. The two buildings are separate structures, providing flexible living arrangements and income across the property. Immediate, transferrable revenue from day one, is a privilege reserved for the discerning owner.Inside the main home, period details are showcased through original stained glass, intricate millwork, a stately newel post, and a signature tower with sweeping river views. The thoughtfully designed spaces cater to both leisure and business guests, with a welcoming library perfect for quiet work, sunlit living and dining rooms ideal for meetings or gatherings, a butlers pantry, large kitchen, and convenient powder room. Upstairs, four oversized bedrooms await, including a spacious primary suite, two generously sized bathrooms, thoughtfully designed to serve both family and guests with ease. Full upper story and roof deck available for conversion. Steeped in history, this home was built for to Dr. W. George Dow, back in 1893, and has since served as a medical office, insurance business, and community gathering place. As a timeless landmark, it stands in the very heart of Owen Sounds vibrant hub, offering the unique ability to live and work under one roof with a strong, proven, lucrative income stream already in place. |
