Central home built by one of Port Elgin's prominent early settlers and up-dated over the years while preserving its original character and charm. Located on an oversized 99' x 132' corner lot (with the possibility of severing a portion*), the 1914 square foot home is only minutes to both the Beach and the Downtown area. The main floor consists of a glass front porch, central foyer, dining room, sitting room/den off the kitchen, kitchen and a 2 pc washroom. There is a 2006 addition that adds a family room, an office nook area and separate laundry/utility room with 2 doors to the fenced backyard, garage/shed, patios and perennial gardens. The second level has a large primary bedroom with double closets, two other bedrooms and a 4-piece washroom with separate soaker tub and shower. Updates over the years include a metal roof, windows and doors, plumbing and electrical, hard-wired smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, flooring and two gas fireplaces. An energy audit in 2021 resulted in added attic insulation, updated lighting and a new fridge and stove. The outside was completely redone in 2018 with a new paving stone driveway, carport, eaves with leaf guards, some fencing, painting and landscaping, including updating the sand point. This home is all ready for you to just move in and enjoy. *a 99' x 55' parcel across the back of the lot was approved for severance in 2021, but was allowed to lapse in 2023. (id:47421)
