Description
Step into a rare piece of history with this enchanting 140+ year-old cottage, where timeless craftsmanship meets modern comfort. Nestled on 5 picturesque acres shaded by mature, towering trees, this one-of-a-kind property offers privacy, charm, and endless possibilities.
Inside, you'll find the character and details that simply can't be replicated—original wood floors rich with patina, antique doors with period hardware, elegant transom windows that invite in natural light, and cozy fireplaces in every bedroom, each telling its own story of warmth and tradition. Every corner of this home reflects the artistry and care of a bygone era.
While the home proudly preserves its historic integrity, key updates provide peace of mind and comfort, including a new roof and newer air conditioning system, blending heritage with modern-day livability.
Beyond the cottage itself, the 5-acre property offers multiple storage areas and ample space for hobbies, equipment, or creative pursuits. A separate gated entrance leads to additional acreage behind the home, fully equipped with water and electricity—ideal for boat or equipment storage, workshop space, recreational use, or future expansion.
Whether you're dreaming of a private country retreat, a homestead, or a distinctive property with room to grow, this extraordinary cottage delivers character, land, and versatility in one remarkable package.
