Property Description
Welcome to this charming Victorian-era cottage with four cozy bedrooms nestled in a picturesque setting near the St. Thomas Courthouse. Designed and built by J.Z Long a founding member of the Ontario Association of Architects in 1892. This lovely home has been beautifully maintained and retains much of its original character and charm. Upon entering, you'll be greeted by a warm and inviting foyer, complete with restored oak hardwood floors, tall ceilings, and a meticulously hand crafted stairwell. The oak floors continue to a stunning living room complete with a wood burning fireplace, arched detailed entryways and windows that help pour natural light across the sprawling space. Stain glass windows throughout the home add to the charm including a signature keyhole shaped window at the front. The dining room is spacious and perfect for hosting dinner parties with friends and family. The kitchen has been updated with modern appliances, while still maintaining its historic charm.
Upstairs, you'll find four cozy bedrooms with ample closet space, each with its own unique character and charm. The primary bedroom features a large window and bench that overlooks the picturesque courthouse neighbourhood, a cozy sitting area perfect for curling up with a good book.
The exterior of the property is equally impressive, with a large, beautifully landscaped garden with purposely planted native trees that provides the perfect setting for outdoor entertaining or quiet relaxation. The cottage is situated in a peaceful and quiet neighbourhood, yet is just a short distance from local amenities, restaurants, and shopping.
Overall, this lovely Victorian-era property is the perfect place to call home. With its classic charm, modern amenities, and convenient location, it is truly a rare gem that must be seen to be fully appreciated.
