Close to the waters of the historic Grimsby Beach are the Painted Ladies, a neighborhood of candy-colored homes boasting aesthetically pleasing architecture. Make your daily life a little more colorful and claim a real-life gingerbread house for yourself.

The Grimsby Beaches date back to the 1800s, and some of the homes are over 150 years old. The land has been used as a Methodist meeting place and campground, an auditorium, and eventually an amusement park in 1910. Now it’s a landmark, noted for the peacefulness and pride of its residents.

Situated on a huge eighty by thirty-five lot, this bright Painted Lady boasts mature trees, ample parking, and an eye-catching fence the same shades as the home. An attached gazebo (in pink, green, and purple, of course) sits attached to the generous porch and offers a nice view of the neighborhood.

Inside has been lovingly maintained, with hardwood floors, an open-concept layout, and gorgeous wood trim. Upstairs has three generously sized bedrooms, and a full four-piece bathroom. 

The basement, a rarity to have in the area, has its own bathroom and most importantly, a walkout. It’s perfect for customizing to your liking and adds more space for you and your family.

Rich wood paneling can be seen in several rooms throughout the home, giving it a more cozy and rustic feel.

Altogether, the Painted Ladies’ homes wouldn’t look out of place in the game Candyland, or perhaps something akin to Willa Wonka’s factory. 

26 Auditorium Circle and Grimsby are the midpoint between Hamilton and St. Catherines and is about two hours from Toronto. Grimsby has a rich history, and the town is full of historical sights and unique spots to explore.
