85 Sleeman Avenue, Guelph

If you are searching for the kind of neighbourhood where families still gather, kids still play outside, and life moves at a slightly gentler pace, Sleeman Avenue may be exactly what you have been looking for. Courts naturally create connections; neighbours watch out for one another, lifelong friendships are formed, and there is a comforting sense that everyone is looking out for the street they call home. This classic four-level sidesplit sits on a generous corner lot at the quiet end of the Cul-de-sac, offering the space and flexibility that made these homes so popular with growing families. Recently refreshed with new flooring throughout the living room and all three bedrooms, fresh paint on every level, an updated bathroom with new vanity and fixtures, and modern lighting throughout, this home blends original character with move-in-ready confidence. Real wood panelling, tongue-and-groove pine walls, and knotty pine cabinetry create a rich, welcoming atmosphere with the beautiful patina only time can create. The traditional layout provides three bedrooms and the main bath upstairs, spacious living areas and an extended kitchen on the main floor, an expansive rec room level complete with pub-style decor and bar area, and an additional lower level with generous storage, laundry, and a den or hobby space. With a separate entrance leading outside, this lower level offers real potential for a future in-law suite or income property. Outside, the fully fenced backyard is ready for summer BBQ season with a patio accessible from both the main floor and lower level, plus raised garden beds for those with a green thumb. Out front, enjoy your morning coffee or an evening glass of wine from the covered porch while watching the sunset.
