Also known as Angel House, this remarkable Second Empire-style residence, c.1879, is a rare & elegant example of 19th-century craftsmanship. Built by the Hon. James Angel—prominent in Newfoundland’s industrial history & associated with the United Nail & Foundry—the home retains many original features while offering modern comforts. Set on nearly 1 acre of professionally landscaped grounds, the property is surrounded by mature trees & heritage plantings, including cherry, apple, elm, walnut, lilac & rhododendron. The exterior showcases a five-sided Scotch dormer atop the mansard roof, ornate millwork & grand bay windows. A bright front porch leads to a stately foyer & large principal rooms: formal living & dining rooms, a cozy den, & a beautifully updated kitchen. The main floor features original back-to-back fireplaces, intricate woodwork & a graceful staircase. The kitchen blends classic style with modern functionality—ceiling-height cabinetry, stainless steel appliances (double wall oven, propane stove), farmhouse sink, large island, & an adjoining sitting area with access to a side porch. A powder room completes the main floor. Upstairs offers 3 spacious bedrooms, each with its own ensuite. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet & spa-like ensuite with soaker tub, custom shower & in-floor heat. A cozy sitting area with bay window overlooks the grounds. The basement includes a rec room with fireplace, full bath, laundry, & a bonus room currently used as an artist's studio. Recent updates include some plumbing & electrical, chimney & fireplace maintenance, new front steps & decks, & 2024 siding & window replacements. Angel House blends historic charm, modern convenience & timeless elegance—just minutes from all amenities. A must see!! (id:47421)
