170 Edwin St W Unit 1

Welcome to your country escape, with the Bighead River on one side, Beautiful Joe Park on the other, and only a 10 minute walk to the main street of Meaford. This 150 year old house has a large fenced-in backyard and with no immediate neighbours, plenty of privacy to go with a unique story having been the one-time home to Meaford's most famous resident, Beautiful Joe. The unit features a large, open kitchen, sizable bedroom with ample room for a Queen bed, 4 piece bathroom and a large L-shaped Living room and dining room with backyard access for a dog to run around in a fenced in area. Important Notes: Unit 2 upstairs is currently occupied by the owner on a casual basis (1-2 nights every couple of weeks typically). As this is a 150 year old house, originally built as a single-family home but legally converted to a duplex, soundproofing throughout the house is not the same as a modern house. As such, we would expect a quiet couple or individual to rent this unit for the maximum enjoyment of all parties. A dog is permitted, provided they are well-behaved and quiet. Rent is $1800/month, plus utilities. Heat is electric baseboard and the tenant is required to set up an account with HydroOne to pay these monthly costs. Water is charged a flat $80, payable monthly. High-speed internet is currently shared between the 2 units and costs $50/month, 1 parking space is included. If you are a family looking for more space, the entire house is also available to rent. The second floor features 2 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, a galley kitchen, and large living area that can be converted into another bedroom. As a whole house, this presents as 3-4 bedooms, 2 full bathrooms, 2 kitchens, and tons of living space inside and out. Please see separate post for the whole house listing.
