This 1893 Queen Anne Revival stands out for its unmatched income potential: a main residence currently operating as a licensed bed and breakfast and a detached carriage house with two separate rental units (a two-bedroom and a studio). Whether you're seeking immediate rental revenue, space for extended family, or a flexible live/work setup, this property delivers. Inside the main house, you'll find preserved period features such as original stained glass, ornate millwork, a grand newel post, and a tower with river views. The layout is both gracious and practical, with a spacious library, sun-filled living and dining rooms, a butler's pantry, a large kitchen, and a powder room. Upstairs, four oversized bedrooms (including a large primary suite) await, and the third floor, with plumbing, offers even more possibilities for a suite, studio, or retreat. A storied address once home to Dr. W. George Dow, this property has served as a medical office, insurance business, and community gathering place. Today, it's ready for its next chapter offering the rare chance to own a historic home with proven, versatile income streams in the heart of Owen Sound.

This can be your new home or business. Mature century home with 4 massive bedrooms, 2 and 1/2 baths. Just behind the Main house is the Carriage House another 600 feet featuring 2 apartments. Located over the bridge from Owen Sound's River district, currently the only licensed Air B & B in Owen Sound offers a welcome retreat. Entering through the front door into the wide, beautifully appointed hallway, with its stunning wainscoting, leaves one breathless at the quiet dignity of this home. The library is located to the left, across the way is the large living room with beautiful grand windows, perfect for that massive Christmas tree you have always wanted! Wander down the hall further and to the right is a lovely dinning room fit for any family gathering. Lovely kitchen can be accessed either through the dining room via the butlers pantry or the hallway. Located on the side of the home was once a doctor's office and waiting room with a side door entrance. This would make a great home office. The waiting room is currently a cozy den. No space is left unused in this home. A 2 piece bath is located under the stairs. A grand stairway leads to the second floor. As you ascend, one cannot help but pause to take in the stunning, stained glass window above the landing, a very proud feature of this home. The second floor features 4 tastefully decorated bedrooms, including a beautiful master bedroom large enough for a sitting area to relax after whatever the day may have brought. One more staircase will take you to the attic, where it can easily be finished as an owners suite with plumbing already available. As if that was not enough, located in the back yard of this home is a carriage house with 2 apartments. Upstairs is an open concept studio apartment and the main floor offers a two bedroom apartment. This is sincerely a must see home that should not be overlooked!
