1562 Morganston Road, Cramahe

This spacious 6 bed, 2.5 bath century home, once serving as a local orphanage, is filled with charm and endless possibilities. Set behind a white picket fence and surrounded by rolling hills and farmland, it makes for a wonderful family dwelling with added versatility for extended family living or potential to create up to three separate units. Inside, you'll find oversized principal rooms and bedrooms filled with character and natural light, many featuring original hardwood floors, large double-hung and bay windows, built-in shelving/closets, and decorative period trim. A bright, eat-in kitchen (open to an oversized dining area) includes white cabinetry, a stainless steel refrigerator and range, a ceiling fan and easy flow to adjacent living spaces. A self-contained in-law suite offers a private entrance, one bedroom, a large living room, kitchen, and 2-piece bath, ideal for multigenerational families or guests. The home’s bathrooms retain vintage character as well — one bath showcases a yellow tub with tiled surround and floral wallpaper. The property is serviced by a drilled well and an oversized septic system designed for higher capacity. The concrete unfinished basement houses the geothermal heating/cooling system (with visible utility access and excellent storage or future development space). Outdoors, the home is complemented by multiple patios for entertaining, numerous outbuildings and sheds, and a tree-lined lot with mature willows, maples, and pines. Cozy sitting areas and benches invite you to take in the tranquil setting, while the wide driveway allows for ample parking. The classic exterior includes a welcoming front porch with columns and green shutters that enhance the home’s historic curb appeal. Currently connected to Xplore internet with Bell Fibre installation underway, the property also features outdoor lighting for evening enjoyment. Conveniently located close to Warkworth, Castleton, and minutes to the 401, this one-of-a-kind property is filled with history, character, and potential. (id:1945)
