Known as the former residence of Barrie mayor Donald Ross, this distinctive turreted building holds an important place in the community's history. Widely regarded as one of Barrie's most well-read citizens, Ross had a deep appreciation for history and the Presbyterian Church, adding further character and significance to this remarkable property. Currently operating as a successful Thai restaurant, the building features excellent commercial space including a full commercial kitchen, dining areas, patio and deck space, along with ample on-site parking. The upper two floors contain residential-style bedrooms with outstanding rental or live/work potential.
