2055 Princess Street, Howick, ON

Description

Set along the Maitland River in the peaceful village of Gorrie, 2055 Princess Street S is a warm and welcoming 1.5-storey home that combines rural charm with everyday comfort, offering approximately 2,140 square feet of finished living space above grade. The 0.343-acre lot feels like a private park, with mature trees, plenty of lawn for kids or pets, a handy garden shed and indirect access to the river at the rear of the property. A newer rear deck overlooks this beautiful setting and creates an ideal spot for morning coffee, summer barbecues or simply unwinding while you listen to the sounds of nature. Inside, the main floor offers a bright, functional layout. The spacious kitchen features ample cabinetry and counter space and opens into a generous dining area, keeping the cook connected to family or guests. Just beyond, an oversized living room provides excellent space for everyday living and entertaining, with large windows that flood the room with natural light. The standout sunroom, wrapped with floor-to-ceiling windows and garden views, is perfect for a home office, studio or quiet reading nook. A convenient main-floor bedroom (or office), laundry room, and 2-piece bath add to the home's practicality. Upstairs, the second level is light and airy thanks to a skylight at the landing, and offers three comfortable bedrooms plus a full 4-piece bathroom. Each bedroom enjoys pleasant treed views and neutral finishes that make decorating easy. Outside, the attached 1.5-car garage (approx. 17' x 30') and double-wide asphalt driveway provide ample parking and storage. Additional peace of mind comes from the durable steel roof, propane forced-air heat (installed in 2025) and a Generac backup generator. All of this is set in a friendly rural community with riverside recreation, local amenities and an easy drive to nearby centres like Wingham and Listowel-an inviting place to call home.
