This is a serious piece of Hamilton history. A circa 1880 limestone manor sitting on 83.6 by 151.5 foot lot, right on the Niagara Escarpment edge. 4,189 square feet above grade, 5 beds, 4 baths. The stone work is incredible, and inside you'll find original woodwork, hardwood floors, and five fireplaces. Mahogany-panelled dining room, a big library, and a sunroom that's perfect for morning coffee. Kitchen's been updated, but it keeps the old-house character. Upstairs, the primary suite has its own sitting room, sunroom, and ensuite, with killer views over the city and Lake Ontario. Out back, there's a courtyard with a gunite plunge pool/hot tub, a cabana, a pergola, and a dry sauna. Mature trees all around, no houses directly in front. You're steps from the Bruce Trail and just minutes to Locke Street shops and downtown. Mohawk College is a kilometre away, GO Transit and the 403 are close, too. Taxes run about $15,837 a year. Listed at $2,199,900, which is above the area median of $1,514,450, but this is a landmark property. 69 days on market on average for the area, but this one's unique. If you want a historic home with modern touches and unbeatable privacy, this is it.
