**A one-of-one Paris property: direct access to the Nith River, steps from downtown.**
Welcome to 18 West River Street, one of the rarest offerings in town. Your backyard opens directly onto the Nith River, and the vibrant core of Paris, one of Ontario's prettiest towns, sits just steps from your door. Picture morning coffee from the market, long dinners along the water, and afternoons on the trails, with the shops, cafes, and restaurants all within an easy walk home. This is a home made for gathering. The backyard is built to host the people you love, a beautiful outdoor space that flows right down to the river's edge, where quiet evenings are spent simply watching the world go by. Inside, a lovingly maintained 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home offers comfortable living across two levels, on a deep 38 x 180 ft lot with river frontage that's almost impossible to find this close to town. The garage has been converted into a versatile space that works as a home gym, workshop, and storage all in one. First home or next chapter, this is a place to simply be.
