About this home

Discover this beautifully located Victorian Ontario cottage, circa 1860, proudly positioned on one of the highest points of land in town. Offered to the market for the first time, this historic gem presents a rare opportunity to acquire a property of such character, provenance, and potential.Offering exceptional structural integrity and "great bones," this is one of the very few remaining historic homes in town awaiting a thoughtful 21st-century update. Soaring ceilings and spacious principal rooms create an elegant envelope filled with authentic period charm and architectural character. The home features four bedrooms, including the highly desirable convenience of two main-floor bedrooms. A secondary-storey addition, completed years ago, provides two additional bedrooms. Nestled in the sought-after West Englishtown area and surrounded by a stunning collection of period homes, the property enjoys a wonderful sense of place within one of the town's most distinctive historic neighbourhoods. A detached garage at the rear of the property adds valuable parking and storage. A rare offering for the vintage-property enthusiast, this remarkable home is a wonderful canvas for custom finishing touches-an opportunity to thoughtfully preserve its historic character while bringing it into the modern era.
