Benefits offered by this property
This huge house was once a presbytery. The front portion of the house contains 6 bedrooms while the back portion contains 3 bedrooms.
This house could just as easily be transformed into a bigeneration or a duplex. However, the kitchenette in the front portion will have to be transformed into a full kitchen. The property will be sold fully furnished (see list of inclusions and exclusions below).
This ancestral home has been well maintained by its owner, while retaining its original character. You will appreciate the 9 foot ceilings, the antique materials, the large windows, the 4 seasons solarium, the 2 warm wood stoves and the 6 bathrooms + 1 powder room.
The lot offers a large South facing fenced side yard đđ where you can put in hot tub, garden, etc. There are 6 paved parking spaces on the side as well as 2 gravel parking spaces in front of the garage. The latter gives access to the basement, whose foundation was completely redone in concrete around 1990. The huge basement hosts a large laundry room, a workshop and a huge storage space.
