This stunning 1870 Ontario Cottage has timeless character and unbeatable curb appeal. From the moment you enter the arched entryway, you will witness the history, elegance, and craftsmanship. Original wide-plank floors, 10-foot ceilings, and deep baseboards give a sense of grandeur, while the expansive private lot, adorned with mature trees, secret pathways, and gardens, offers a tranquil retreat just minutes from downtown Stratford. Inside, the home has large, light-filled principal rooms, including a welcoming front parlour and two spacious main-floor bedrooms, making it ideal for all buyers. The kitchen is simple and functional which opens to a charming side porch - the perfect spot to sip your morning coffee. A board-and-batten addition with pine plank floors invites endless possibilities: a cozy den, creative studio, or mudroom with new laundry hook-ups. Venture upstairs via a tucked-away staircase to discover a freshly updated loft featuring a 2 pc powder room, a third bedroom, and an airy open space with great potential which could be reimagined as primary suite, an inspiring art studio, or a playroom. With recent upgrades furnace (2020), municipal sewer line, water heater, and foundation regrading (2021). Don't miss the opportunity to own a Century Home just minutes from the vibrant downtown core.
