Historic Charm - Contemporary Updates

Updated 19th Century farmhouse in Eastern Ontario

You love Eastern Ontario's 19th-century stone farmhouses, yet updating and modernizing them can be daunting. But fear not—this remarkable home has been renovated and awaits your personal touch. Embrace the traditional charm of hardwood floors, elegant staircases, tin ceilings, and deep window wells, all within a modern, energy-efficient setting.

With a flexible layout, the possibilities for tailoring this home to your lifestyle are endless. And with neighbouring farm activity providing a sense of security and the convenience of having the driveway plowed by the farmer, you can fully immerse yourself in country living just 20 minutes from Kingston. Picture yourself savouring your morning coffee while greeting the neighbouring cows.

Step inside, and a spacious foyer with built-in cabinets, ample storage, and a new powder room will greet you. The former coach house has been transformed into a 438 sq ft "bonus room," featuring a stunning stone wall and a cozy propane fireplace—ideal for a family room, yoga studio, or even a home business.

French doors beckon you towards the lush gardens and stone patio, where a pergola, covered hot tub, and stone firepit invite relaxation and entertainment.

The newly renovated eat-in kitchen boasts high-end stainless steel appliances, stone countertops, and a walk-in pantry with a wine fridge. And while dinner simmers on the stove, you can unwind with a good book beside the propane stove.

The sunny living room, previously the dining room, showcases vintage built-in cabinets and is conveniently adjacent to the new main-floor laundry room. The former parlour, now the main floor primary bedroom, offers serene garden views, a spacious walk-in closet, and a brand new ensuite bathroom with heated tiled floors and a glass shower.

Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms and another fully renovated bathroom featuring a cast iron claw foot tub await family and guests alike.

The attached 684 sq. ft., 2-car garage has been completely rebuilt with a new floor, board and batten siding, automatic door, propane furnace, and insulation. Meanwhile, the 925+ sq. ft. barn provides additional storage space.

Outside, you and the birds can bask in the sunshine on the updated patios or amidst the perennial gardens. For those with a green thumb, there are raised veggie garden beds to put in. Located on a one-acre property with beautiful fruit trees and privacy, the cute shed serves as a delightful playhouse or garden shed.

Recent upgrades include a metal roof (2021), all new windows (2021-24), new exterior doors, updated insulation, a renovated kitchen and bathrooms, a new hot tub, patio, and pergola, upgraded plumbing, new propane fireplace and stoves, updated baseboards, Ecobee thermostats, a water system, new AC, and more!

Located just minutes from the amenities of the charming village of Sydenham, this home offers easy access to beaches, parks, and South Frontenac hiking trails.
