Description
Welcome to this often admired limestone beauty by the shores of Trent River, with a view to enjoy from the generous covered porches that reflect the relaxed gentleness of yesteryear. Original 1880's owner was Dr. Diamond and this home has been well maintained and updated by her current owners, yet the numerous improvements have only enhanced her charm and character. The yard, embraced by a stone fence and metal gates, is ripe with perennial gardens and several blossoming fruit trees. The Original arched stained-glass windows in the dining room and sitting room are not only beautiful but functional as well, letting in the gentle breeze off the water. Hardwood floors through most of this home. A large bright island kitchen with gas stove sits at the heart of this home. The winding oak staircase leads you to the 2nd level where you will find 3 good sized bedrooms, 2 with walkouts to the upper deck, a large bath with a separate soaker tub and glass step-in shower as well, a tidy laundry room where it's needed most. Owners installed a reclaimed historic staircase and opened up the 3rd level to create a generous large family room, plus enough space for a small office, additional sleeping accommodations, complete with skylights, new windows, and a gas fireplace. This would make an amazing master bed with en-suite if you were so inclined. This home is one of a kind and will suit a buyer who appreciates her majesty. Pre Sale Inspection Report available.
