72 Pearl Street

This is a genuine Victorian-era brick house in Brantford's downtown historic district — two storeys, a corner turret, stained glass throughout, and a cast iron fireplace that still anchors the front sitting room. The bones are the real story here. The kitchen is the most significant upgrade: granite island, induction cooktop, double wall oven, and ornate distressed cabinetry that fits the period without feeling like a costume. The new metal roof (2024) handles the most important structural concern. Stained glass transom panels above the upper bedroom doors are an unusual original detail that survived intact. The upper level includes a kitchenette and Murphy bed that could work as a multi-generational suite or oversized fourth bedroom. The backyard is a practical size for a downtown lot — fenced, with a timber gazebo on the deck and a storage shed. Buyers should note drainage pooling visible along the side passage in the listing photos.
