A
new home (brand new construction) might be your choice, but keep in
mind that many great older houses can be viewed which provide
character, charm and comfort.
For
example, I grew up in the Drew – Oxford streets neighbourhood of
Woodstock – west of historic tree-lined VanSittart.
As
a child my Mom would cart her sons (including me) two blocks to
VanSittart Park at the corner of Drew. In this cart (actually a
wagon, of course) we would pass a stately 2-storey at 314 Drew St.
Today,
I’m 47 years old, and the same owner still resides in that
yellow/beige brick house, and now it’s currently on the market for
the first time in more than 50 years.
Below
are several older homes listed by Royal LePage Triland. If you would
like to view one or more, call myself today. You can also most
certainly dial the listing agent for more details and a showing as I
have also noted their respective names.
For
all the listings, look up www.realtor.ca
for additional interior and exterior pictures. As a Royal LePage
Triland agent, I know the importance of promoting our in-office
listings.

kitchen. Living room is 30 x 20 (600 sq ft ). Second-floor could be
more bedrooms as there is currently a 2nd kitchen. Located in

quick 401 access. Currently set up with just 2 very large bedrooms,
which could be sub-divided for a family. Home’s history includes previous use as a church.
