This magnificent two-storey heritage home offers over 2,500 sq. ft. of character, warmth, and beautifully updated living space on an impressive double lot surrounded by mature trees and established gardens. A grand wraparound veranda welcomes you with the charm of a bygone era. The enchanting grounds feature flowering crabapple and apple trees, majestic maples, King Crimson maple, chokecherries, Black-Eyed Susans, Becky daisies, and an abundance of established perennials. Inside, a grand foyer, soaring ceilings, and heritage details set the tone. Every room has its own purpose, balancing elegant entertaining with comfortable everyday living. The redesigned kitchen features a generous centre island, gas cooktop, double ovens, soft-close cabinetry, upgraded dishwasher, and heated floors. It opens to a spacious formal dining room with a cozy electric fireplace, ideal for family dinners and holiday gatherings. The main floor also offers a generous family room, a recently upgraded bathroom area with one full and one half bath, and a practical boot and locker area at the side entrance. A newly built side deck, completed this past summer, offers another place to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Upstairs are four well-appointed bedrooms and a full bathroom. Vaulted ceilings and updated windows throughout create a bright, airy atmosphere while complementing the home's original character. The unfinished basement holds a vintage bar dating to 1935, a half bathroom, ample storage, and laundry with a newly replaced washer and dryer. Rich in history, surrounded by beautiful gardens, and thoughtfully improved for modern living, this is more than a house. It's a home with personality, presence, and a story to tell.
