Property Description

A landmark heritage home in the heart of Hespeler Village. Welcome to 1691 Franklin Blvd - a rare Gothic Revival heritage home built in 1889 and designated under the Ontario Heritage Act. Like a beautifully preserved piece of living history, this century home blends timeless character, architectural craftsmanship, and a sense of individuality that simply cannot be replicated. Set on a stunning 72' x 111' mature lot, the park-like grounds are framed by an elegant wrought iron fence and feature established maple, birch, and pine trees, along with a striking Japanese Maple and a fruit-bearing pear tree. Enjoy the beautifully fenced yard, covered front and rear porches, a steel roof, interlock driveway and walkways, and an oversized detached double-car garage with endless potential for a workshop, studio, hobby space, or additional storage. Inside, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers soaring ceilings, hardwood flooring, generous principal rooms, abundant natural light, a wood-burning fireplace, an eat-in kitchen, separate living and dining rooms, and a versatile bonus room ideal for a home office, playroom, guest space, or potential fourth bedroom. Located in the heart of historic Hespeler Village, you'll enjoy a highly walkable lifestyle with cafes, restaurants, boutique shops, a recreation center, library, parks, trails, the Speed River, public transit, and everyday amenities all within walking distance, plus convenient access to Highway 401 for commuters. This property presents the perfect opportunity for the next owner to thoughtfully personalize the interior with modern upgrades while preserving the historic charm and architectural character that make this home truly special. A rare opportunity to own a distinctive heritage residence where history, character, and future possibilities come together.
