About This Home
Appealing 1870s home blends timeless beauty with generous, light-filled spaces. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by original hardwood floors that have gracefully endured through the decades, and arched doorways that lend a soft elegance to the flow of each room. At the center of the home, the custom wood staircase railing stands as a true showpiece — meticulously crafted, rich with character, and unmistakably unique. It turns a simple ascent to the upper level into a moment of beauty, reminding you of the home's history at every glance.
The main living areas offer a relaxed openness, perfect for lively gatherings or peaceful evenings. The three bedrooms are airy and inviting, each offering its own sense of quiet charm. The home has been lovingly maintained, with updates like a new roof that brings modern reassurance while preserving the authenticity of the structure.
Beyond the home itself, the property includes a spacious 680-square-foot barn-style garage, ideal for storage, workshop, or creative studio. The in-town lot provides the best of both worlds — room to spread out, garden, or enjoy outdoor living, all while keeping everyday conveniences close at hand. Steeped in history, full of charm, and enhanced by meaningful updates, this home is ready to offer its next owner a truly special place to settle in and enjoy.
Walking distance to downtown amenities and minutes from the International Borer crossing into Canada.
