Remarks

Tucked just off the main road through Shakespeare, this high-visibility corner property blends charm, history, and residential potential. Originally a family home, it later became The Quilt Place a cherished local business. Today, it's ready to be reimagined as a residence once again. Set on a generous corner lot with mature trees and parking for approximately 10 vehicles, the property offers excellent exposure and adaptability. Zoned C15 (Perth East), it supports a wide range of commercial uses, but its layout with original staircase and three bedrooms upstairs-makes it ideal for conversion back to a single-family home. Inside, the space has been reconfigured for commercial use while retaining its character and warmth of a one 1/2 story home. The basement includes a laundry area, sump pump, and utility setup, with a newer Lennox furnace (2011), a roof in good condition (2010), and a 100-amp hydro panel already in place. Municipal sewer service, natural gas, waste collection, and telephone are available, with future well water supply under negotiation. This property offers something for every vision: homeowners seeking a unique restoration project, investors looking for a strategic location, or entrepreneurs interested in a live-work setup. Whether you're dreaming of a cozy home with vintage charm or a hybrid space that blends residential comfort with creative enterprise, this property delivers. Located just 10 minutes from Stratford or Tavistock and 30 minutes to Kitchener-Waterloo, it combines small-town appeal with commuter convenience. Shakespeare's welcoming community and rich heritage make it an ideal place to settle down, start fresh, or build something new. A rare opportunity to own a highly visible corner lot with deep roots and endless possibilities. Bring your imagination and explore the potential to restore this space into a warm and inviting home-or shape it into something entirely your own. (id:7525)
