Inside the home
This Paris century home has been a triplex for over 50 years and offers three self-contained units on a large lot with laneway access from two streets. The rear two-storey unit is the strongest of the three — updated kitchen with stainless appliances, main-floor laundry, and a big deck overlooking a fully fenced yard. The two front units are a different story. Finishes range from functional-but-dated 1990s to genuinely aged 1970s-era in one unit, with carpet, older kitchens, and wallpaper still in place. Buyers should price in cosmetic work on the front units. The real case for this property is flexibility: hold as a triplex for income, convert to a duplex, or reconfigure as a single-family home. The bones are solid — original yellow brick, a period staircase, tall ceilings — and the lot is one of the larger ones you will find close to the Grand River in Paris.

Whether you’re looking for an addition to your investment portfolio, a home with mortgage-helping income, or the opportunity to create a spacious single-family residence, 9 Willow Street in Paris offers flexibility that’s hard to find. Offered for sale for the first time in over 50 years, this charming century home is currently configured as a triplex and has been meticulously maintained throughout. The current layout includes a spacious rear two-storey unit with 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, plus a 1-bedroom / 1-bathroom main floor front unit, and a 1-bedroom / 1-bathroom upper front unit. For buyers who don’t require three separate units, the existing floor plan lends itself well to an easy conversion into a duplex or even back to a single-family home. Beyond the home itself, the property continues to impress. Set on a nearly quarter-acre lot, you’ll enjoy parking for up to 11 vehicles with driveway access from both Willow Street and Walnut Street, along with a detached single-car garage featuring its own driveway. The expansive backyard provides plenty of room to relax or entertain, complete with a large deck and an oversized garden shed. Thoughtful updates throughout the years complement the home’s original character, including cosmetic improvements, updated windows, HVAC equipment, a 200-amp electrical service, plumbing, roof, and more, making this a property that’s as practical as it is charming. Located just minutes from downtown Paris, the Grand River, parks, restaurants, shopping, and everyday amenities, this is a rare opportunity to own a property that can adapt to your needs both today and for years to come.
