Property Description
A rare opportunity! Significant historic house and family cottage in the lakeside community of Port Burwell. Lovingly restored by the current owner to its origins in the 1830s while completely modernizing its foundation and amenities. Located on a quiet residential street just two blocks from the beach, and a short walk to eateries, museum and theatre. A tavern during the Rebellion years and then the home of Port Burwell's first lighthouse keeper, it is a rare survival of the early years! Exposed beams and original pine walls and floor in the dining room (former tavern) and kitchen. Restored plaster walls and pine floors in the rest of the house create a bright, summery yet cozy interior. Original 12 over 12 windows, with custom matching storms. 2 fireplaces completely rebuilt in 2011. 4 spacious bedrooms, useable attic. Large cedar back verandah (2018). Napoleon gas heat stove, gas furnace, 200 amp electrical. Walls and attic insulated with two layers of Roxul. 50 year Enviroshake roof 2022. Copper flashing on roof, door surrounds, chimney & foundation. Full height basement excavated 2006, faced above ground with stones from the original footings. New second floor bathroom 2023. Main floor powder room and laundry. Fibre optic internet. Deep and private back and side yards with shade trees and perennial gardens including low walls of stones from the old foundation. The privacy fence is clad in antique barn boards to complement the house. A truly unique combination of historic atmosphere and modern comforts on Lake Erie's shore. Your entrancing new home or year round cottage.
