Welcome to this unique and beautifully maintained property, where timeless character meets contemporary living. Originally built in the late 1800's and thoughtfully expanded in 2016, this 3-bedroom plus loft residence offers warmth, flexibility, and enduring style. Step onto the classic wraparound porch and into a home full of charm, featuring original pine floors, inviting living spaces, and a spectacular great room with a gas fireplace and soaring vaulted ceilings reaching 25', a perfect space for relaxing or entertaining. The kitchen was custom designed by Carleton Kitchens in 2011, featuring cabinets to the ceiling for maximum storage, a built-in wine rack, and stone counters. The versatile loft, currently used as a fourth bedroom, could also serve as a library, music room, or home office to suit your needs. The thoughtful layout includes a functional mudroom with a custom dog shower, ideal for busy households, outdoor enthusiasts, and pet lovers alike. With two full bathrooms, a spacious back deck, and a private, tree-lined backyard, you'll enjoy peaceful outdoor living year-round. Among numerous recent enhancements, new Fraser Wood siding (2025) has been selected to honour the historic architecture while providing low-maintenance durability and impeccable curb appeal. Located in one of Almonte's most desirable neighbourhoods, the home is just a short stroll to downtown shops, cafes, and restaurants. Just down the street is Gemmill Park, offering tennis courts, a splash pad, walking trails, and frisbee golf, as well as Metcalfe Park, with its scenic river access and boat launch.Whether you're drawn to heritage charm or modern comfort, this home delivers both with room to grow and space to truly make it your own.
