Somewhere in time….if you drive by this stunning Second Empire home you will see the large time piece that is beside the long walkway, reminiscent of a romantic era before the advent of the internet, the cellular phone and even before the invention of the classic Ford Model T.
The street is probably as quiet as it was over a century ago, except that the horse drawn buggies have been replaced by the occasional vehicle that drives by during the day and during the rush to get to the nearby school on time each morning. The trees that line the street that were once small saplings now tower over the neighborhood, reminding us how a strong tree and well-built home can last a few lifetimes.
This stunning triple brick home built in 1886 has been tastefully restored to its original grandeur with all the necessary modern conveniences including stainless steel kitchen appliances, brand new gas furnace and central air. All original floor coverings were removed at this time, creating an allergy-free home with no carpeting.
Much of the original pine and maple strip hardwood flooring was restored as well as two fireplaces. Most every room in the home has at least two big bright windows, creating a warm and bright atmosphere. Please see the enclosed main text for details.
Morrisburg is known as one for the most beautiful waterfront towns along the St. Lawrence River. In fact it is a short walk from the home to the waterfront. Local amenities include a good shopping centre with many shops, boutiques and a major grocery store. There are two major banks including the Bank on Montreal and Scotiabank. There is a Canadian Tire Superstore, Tim Horton’s & more!
