About this home

Beautiful Century Stone Home on a Huge Lot in Old Town Elora! Welcome to 22 Sophia Street! This 3 storey stone home is an absolute head-turner! Come through the enclosed front porch (the perfect space for relaxing or welcoming guests) into a generous hallway, a large reception room and a formal dining room, all with original pine floors, large windows and period trim. Further down the hall you enter the real Heart-of-the Home: the massive and recently renovated kitchen with dinette area. You will love the huge and well-appointed cooking area, updated cabinets, countertops and fixtures. Completing the main floor is a 2 piece bath and a handy laundry room/pantry. On the second level you will find the period flooring continuing through a primary bedroom (formerly two smaller rooms, now combined), a 4 piece nicely updated family bathroom, and a generous spare bedroom. Up another level to the 3rd storey, you will find a huge 3rd bedroom with walk-in closet and skylight. This space is currently set up as an office, but offers myriad possibilities. Outside, this property is magnificent. Situated on a massive, 14,000 + sq ft lot, this property has beautiful gardens, mature trees, a lovely and functional patio with hot tub, and privacy galore! Who needs a cottage when you have a property like this? The property is also furnished with a detached one car garage with an extra work-space or studio and stairs leading to a large storage area. It could be converted to a 2 car garage. This really is the complete package: a historic, beautifully maintained house on a stunning oversized lot, all just a short walk to beautiful downtown Elora, and a short drive to Guelph and K/W. Opportunities to own properties of this stature in this location do not present themselves often. Don't Delay on this one. Book Your Showing Today!
