First time on the market since 1997! Drive up to the beauty of this Victorian Home with its mature trees, lawns, gardens, & complete privacy, giving you your own piece of paradise all year round. The home known as "Hillside House" was the residence of John McLay following his appointment as Registrar of Bruce County in 1864. As a pioneer journalist of the County of Bruce, President of both the Saugeen Railway & Northern Agricultural Exhibition Company & Chairman of the Board of Public School Trustees, just to name a few, his significant roles in the development of Walkerton as we know it today are truly immeasurable. Step inside this impressive 3,300+ sq. ft. 2 storey brick home & experience a residence where history & craftsmanship have been beautifully honored. Since 2019, carefully considered renovations-including soundproof insulation, interior improvements & a new roof-have enhanced the home's comfort while preserving the timeless character & architectural details that make this Victorian home so special. Rich in warmth & personality, every room reflects the care & pride of ownership invested in maintaining this remarkable home. Offering 4 generously sized bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a living room, family room & main-floor laundry, this home provides a rare combination of historic elegance & everyday comfort. Set on an extraordinary 1.75-acre property within the Town of Walkerton, Hillside House occupies one of the most remarkable residential settings in the community. Towering mature trees, sweeping lawns, established gardens & exceptional privacy create a park-like retreat unlike anything else in town. Whether gathering with family & friends, enjoying a quiet evening beneath the trees or simply appreciating the beauty of the changing seasons, this is a property that offers a lifestyle as exceptional as its history. Opportunities to own a home of this significance on one of Walkerton's largest residential properties are truly rare. (id:56241)
