Property Description
Opportunities to live along the Heritage Grand River are few and far between. Welcome to a truly one-of-a-kind property nestled along the scenic and historic Grand River. Steeped in history and lovingly restored over 52 years by the current owners, this stately Classical Revival home, accented with Gothic Revival features, was originally constructed between 1903 and 1908 using bricks from a local brickyard in nearby Newport. The charm of the early 20th century meets modern comfort throughout this timeless residence. The grand front verandah, supported by majestic round columns, was thoughtfully restored and upgraded with low-maintenance TREX composite decking in 2019, the perfect place to take in the river views. Inside, the home exudes warmth and character with original wide pine plank floors and impressive 18-inch baseboards throughout. The spacious, bright kitchen is designed for both entertaining and everyday living, featuring high-end appliances, a cozy propane fireplace, and a new hickory floor (2010). Large windows offer panoramic views of mature trees including maple, sycamore, catalpa, oak, and walnut. The property includes a 3 car garage built in 2014, complete with imported Frenchporte automatic doors, providing ample space for vehicles, tools, and outdoor equipment. For the ultimate escape, retreat to your private log cabin, relocated from Six Nations and carefully restored to create a peaceful sanctuary. Whether you're watching herons glide over the water, launching a kayak from your cement boat ramp, or enjoying the ever-changing beauty of the river from your front porch, the sense of tranquility here is unmatched. A piece of the property's rich history, the 1938 barn has housed everything from chickens and Angus cows to horses and rescue ponies. Today, it's home to one charming resident: Rocketman, a miniature horse. Don't miss the chance to own this extraordinary waterfront estate, a rare blend of history, nature, and timeless beauty.
