A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Dutton! Meticulously restored and lovingly preserved, 161 Nancy Street is a truly special piece of Dutton's history.

Located less than 30 minutes from London and St. Thomas, and close to schools, parks, shopping and Dutton's growing selection of retailers, this home offers both convenience and small-town charm. Inside, original character shines throughout. With solid oak floors throughout, the main floor features a formal living room trimmed with quarter sawn oak with wood fireplace and access to the south-facing brick mini-conservatory , formal dining room, and a remarkable butler's pantry with dumbwaiter servicing the basement through to the second level. A convenient mudroom provides access to the rear yard. The second level offers three bedrooms, a library, shared sunroom and second wood fireplace. The finished third level adds versatile space for a home office, studio, hobby room or retreat. The full basement includes laundry and storage. A recently inspected natural gas boiler provides hot-water radiant heat, while recently inspected central A/C and municipal water add modern convenience. Some updated windows, 200-amp service to the home and a recently inspected slate roof provide added peace of mind. The exceptional lot extends from Nancy Street straight through to Peter Street, offering multiple points of access. Immaculately landscaped grounds feature multiple ponds and water features, a gazebo and a charming garden suite with woodstove-creating a private outdoor oasis. The detached 1 and a half car garage is insulated, heated and equipped with hydro, ideal for parking, a workshop or storage. A rare opportunity to own a meticulously preserved 1922 home with exceptional character, an extraordinary lot and beautifully developed grounds. 161 Nancy Street is truly a hidden gem.

Where this home is
Where this address sits, matched against open government data.
Estimated from the house-number range along this road: the right block of the right street, not the exact building. No address file publishes this house.
Schools
The school boundaries this address is inside, and the schools nearest it. Boards redraw boundaries and cap programs — confirm with the board before this affects a decision.
Other schools nearby
By distance from this address, not school boundary — a school 400 m away can be in another school’s attendance area.
| School | Level | Distance | Rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dunwich-Dutton Public School Thames Valley DSB | Elementary | 613 m | / 10 66% met the standard |
How the rating is calculated
EQAO — Ontario’s testing agency — publishes, for each school, the percentage of students meeting the provincial standard in Grade 3 and Grade 6 reading, writing and mathematics. The rating is the average of those percentages divided by ten. A school where 72% of students met the standard rates 7.2 out of 10.
Nothing is weighted or adjusted, and schools are not ranked against each other. Where EQAO withholds a result to protect the privacy of a small group of students, that measure is left out rather than counted as zero — so a rating built on fewer than six measures says so.
What it does not measure. It is one year of standardised testing in three subjects. It says nothing about teaching, programs, or whether a school suits a particular child, and it tracks neighbourhood household income closely enough that it partly measures the neighbourhood rather than the school. Treat it as one figure among many.

Percentages are of the 270 responses in this category. Statistics Canada rounds counts and withholds small ones to keep individuals unidentifiable, so categories with too few people to publish are absent rather than shown as zero.

Work out the numbers
Everything below is calculated in your browser from figures you can change. Nothing is sent anywhere.
If you rented it out
Monthly rent starts from a rule of thumb — two per cent of the asking price a year — because no comparable lease was found nearby. Change it to anything you like.
How this is calculated, and what it leaves out
Canadian fixed-rate mortgages compound semi-annually, not monthly, so the monthly rate here is (1 + rate/2)1/6 − 1. Most calculators use rate ÷ 12, which is the American convention and overstates the payment by tens of dollars a month.
Below 20% down, default insurance is mandatory and is added to the loan rather than paid at closing: 2.80% at 85% loan-to-value, 3.10% at 90%, 4.00% at 95%. It is unavailable at or above $1.5M, which is why 20% is a hard floor there.
Not included: vacancy, property management, capital repairs, income tax, and the fact that a lender qualifies you at a stress-test rate rather than the one you are quoted. This is arithmetic on the numbers above, not a mortgage approval or an opinion of what you can afford.
