A Storybook Victorian, Plucked From Another Time. Once upon a quiet street, behind a curtain of perennial blooms, stands a home that time has been gentle with, and that's been gently loved in return.This enchanting 1880s Victorian, originally a church manse, is one of the rarest gems you'll find on the market today. Thoughtfully refurbished with every modern comfort, yet still humming with original period soul, every corner whispers craftsmanship: pressed tin ceilings and walls, leaded and stained glass windows that catch the afternoon light, gleaming hardwood floors, graceful French doors, and an unforgettable second-floor bath crowned by a tin claw-foot tub circa 1881. Step outside and the picturesque 25 x 163 ft lot unfolds like a fairytale. Front and back perennial gardens bloom in sequence through the seasons, while the deep, dreamy backyard feels like a secret world of its own. It's the kind of place where summer evenings linger and morning coffee turns into morning daydreams. Tucked at the back, a fully heated and insulated garage doubles as the ultimate studio, workshop, or creative escape. Add a finished basement suite with its own kitchen, four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a home that has passed through only a precious handful of hands over the decades, and you have something genuinely uncommon: a residence with stories already woven into its walls, patiently waiting to add yours. A home this rare doesn't come along often. When it does, you don't just buy it. You become part of its story. (id:50212)
