An historic fixer upper beauty wishing to be restored to her former glory! This 2,765 sq ft home, situated on 1.73 scenic acres, dates back to pre-Civil War. The gorgeous property overlooks a ravine with a meandering stream to Lake Erie & offers Lake views from late fall through springtime. This home’s long past is evident in its unique features, including exposed hand-hewn beams, some original interior doors, 9 double-hung 6-over-6 sash windows with original brass hardware & hand-molded glass panes, and more.
The footprint of this home includes 3 structures that were ingeniously assembled to create the large & inviting home standing today. First enter the 1845 house from the covered front porch & into the foyer with hardwood floors. The library boasts original woodwork with 12″ baseboards and Greek Key design window frames. A large formal dining rm with secret built-ins leads to an expansive kitchen with additional dining area & woodburning fireplace. The over-sized living room includes French doors, a gorgeous chandelier, & a gas fireplace. The 1st Floor Master Suite & sitting room, located on the West side of the home, could be converted into an in-law suite with some light re-configuring. Other 1st floor features include a 1/2 bath, family room with bar, & 1st floor laundry.
Head upstairs to find another full bath, a large landing area/reading nook, and 2 large bedrooms, (one of which is big enough to divide to create a 4-bedroom home). Abundant potential here for someone with an eye for restoration!
