Timeless Beauty on Nearly an Acre
There’s something truly special about a classic red brick century home. Rich with history, character, and craftsmanship that’s difficult to replicate, these homes tell a story the moment you arrive. Set on an almost one-acre lot, this beautiful property blends the warmth and elegance of a bygone era with the modern conveniences today's homeowners appreciate.
From the welcoming porch to the original details found throughout, every space reflects the charm and authenticity that make century homes so beloved. Thoughtful updates have been carefully incorporated over the years, creating a home that is both functional and comfortable without sacrificing its timeless appeal. Surrounded by mature trees, open green space, and endless opportunities to enjoy the outdoors, this is more than just a home—it's a place where history, character, and modern living come together in perfect harmony.
Versatile Living with Built-In Opportunity
Beyond its timeless exterior, the interior of this century home offers a surprisingly versatile layout designed to meet the needs of today's families. With five bedrooms and three full bathrooms, there is no shortage of space for family members, guests, or those working from home.
A standout feature is the presence of two main-floor primary bedrooms, each complete with its own private ensuite bathroom. This rare configuration provides exceptional flexibility, whether accommodating multi-generational living, offering comfortable guest quarters, or creating a convenient main-floor retreat.
One of these primary suites is located within a thoughtfully designed addition and benefits from its own separate entrance. This unique setup presents exciting possibilities for families seeking an in-law suite, a private space for adult children or aging parents, or even the potential for a future rental opportunity. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms provide plenty of room for growing families while maintaining privacy and separation from the main-floor living areas.
Combining generous square footage with a layout that adapts to changing needs, this home offers the kind of flexibility that is increasingly difficult to find in today's market.
Room for Your Passions, Space for Your Lifestyle
While the home itself offers exceptional space and flexibility, the outdoor features make this property even more special. The detached two-car garage and workshop provide endless possibilities for homeowners seeking extra storage, workspace, or room to pursue their passions. Whether you're housing vehicles, recreational toys, tools, or equipment, the space is designed to accommodate a wide variety of needs. For hobbyists, craftspeople, entrepreneurs, or business owners operating from home, the workshop offers the kind of versatility that is increasingly difficult to find.
Step outside and you'll discover a property that has been thoughtfully curated to be enjoyed. Beautiful gardens surround the home, creating a picturesque setting that changes with the seasons and offers colour, texture, and charm at every turn.
Multiple outdoor spaces invite relaxation, conversation, and connection, making it easy to host family gatherings, summer barbecues, or quiet evenings outdoors.
What truly sets this property apart is the care and intention evident throughout. Every garden bed, gathering space, and outdoor feature has been thoughtfully planned to create a setting that is both beautiful and functional. The result is a property that feels welcoming, peaceful, and perfectly suited for both everyday living and memorable entertaining.
