Property Description

Built in 1859 by Thomas and James Dalgleish, master stone masons whose hands shaped much of Galt's enduring character, 54 Bruce St. is a home with a story to tell. Recently added to Cambridge's Heritage Registry, this three-storey stone residence carries the kind of presence that stops you mid-step. The arched window openings, the original woodwork, the deep stone walls; every detail speaks to a time when homes were not assembled but crafted, built from materials meant to last by hands that understood both structure and beauty. At 4,780 sq ft with 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, the home offers space & substance in equal measure. Over $200,000 in thoughtful renovations since 2022 have addressed the essentials, including a full electrical upgrade replacing knob and tube, updated plumbing, new air conditioning across three floors, refinished hardwood, and a fully renovated European-style kitchen with custom cabinetry and new appliances. These are not cosmetic gestures; they are the kind of improvements that allow the next owner to settle in with confidence. Two wood-burning fireplaces anchor the main living spaces. Stained glass, pocket doors, and period detailing remain intact throughout. A self contained third floor suite, includes its own kitchen, bathroom, separate entrance, and a private sunroom off the bedroom. Whether for extended family or simply space to live and grow, it offers a level of flexibility rarely found in heritage homes. Outside, the generous lot is fully fenced with mature trees, two covered porches, and a large 2-car detached garage. A five-minute walk to Galt's vibrant downtown, farmers' market, and the Grand River. A heritage dossier by architect Eric Rodrigues, Founding Principal of Boldera Architecture, accompanies the listing, offering prospective buyers both an understanding of the home's architectural significance and a thoughtful roadmap for its next chapter. This home has endured for over 160 years. The next chapter is ready to be written.
