50 First Avenue, Uxbridge

This stunning 3,248 sq ft (per MPAC) century home, built circa 1880, offers a perfect blend of historic charm and modern updates including a newer roof, furnace, and electrical wiring, ensuring comfort and peace of mind. It stands on a beautiful corner lot on one of the most picturesque streets in Uxbridge and features beautiful extensive gardens, offering fantastic curb appeal — note the mature hydrangea plantings framing the wraparound porch and professionally landscaped beds. The home boasts a wraparound porch, intricate decorative trim and shutters adding to its timeless beauty, with classic turned columns and decorative brackets that enhance the Victorian character. Upon entering the grand foyer, you're greeted by a showcase curved staircase with beautiful ornate millwork accents and high ceilings. The entry flows through double glass French doors into the conservatory and other principal rooms, and transom windows above interior doors add light and period detail. The main floor, with its 10' ceilings, retains much of its original charm, with oversized baseboards, trim, extended height windows, transoms, chair rails, and period cold air returns. The home features six distinct living spaces, including a formal living room with gas fireplace insert, central dining room (with a chandelier and detailed millwork), parlour with French doors, a cozy kitchen, an office and a beautifully rebuilt conservatory complete with stunning stained glass transoms which serves as a peaceful retreat. The conservatory — accessible through double glass doors — showcases a vaulted glass ceiling with exposed white rafters, skylights, ceiling fan, abundant windows on three sides and comfortable seating areas that flood the space with natural light. The kitchen, while not ostentatious, is functional, with a centre island with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse-style apron sink, subway-tile backsplash and built-in glass-front display cabinetry, all sitting on rich dark wide-plank floors that run through much of the main level. The office with bathroom, is ideal for a work-from-home setup and there is ample built-in shelving / pantry storage nearby for organization. The second floor, with 9.5' ceilings, has a generous landing with a serene reading nook, and the principal bedroom features an electric fireplace, large walk-in closet with custom organizers, and ample natural light. Two additional spacious bedrooms, a 3-piece bath with a soaker tub, and another 3-piece bath with a shower are also on the upper floor.
