274 Bishop Street

Original Remarks

Built in 1885, this character-filled Alexandria home has stood the test of time and it still has plenty of stories left to tell. Located directly across from the VIA Rail station and just a stone's throw away from the iconic Atlantic Pub, the location is as convenient as it is charming. Inside, you'll find a spacious layout with 5 true bedrooms plus a flexible bonus room that could easily serve as a 6th bedroom, office, or extra living room. The home also features two kitchens, two full bathrooms (one on each level), and two staircases, creating a layout that naturally lends itself to multi-generational living or a private in-law suite setup. The main floor kitchen and bathroom were updated in recent years, offering a blend of contemporary function within this historic home. The property reflects the reality of a well-lived-in family home: comfortable, practical, and full of life, and with a bit of polishing and a few finishing touches, the next owner could easily bring out even more of its charm and potential. Currently enjoyed as an open multi-generational space, the layout can easily be adapted depending on your needs. Keep things open and connected or simply close a few doors to create a more private, self-contained secondary living area. With its unique configuration, generous size, and strategic location near the train station, local amenities, and the Atlantic Pub, this is a property where the possibilities are plentiful, whether it's multi-generational family living, creating separate living spaces, or simply enjoying a large character home in the heart of Alexandria. (Please note that some of the floor plan measurements appear to be inaccurate but they're included to provide a general understanding of the layout of the home.)
