23 Mill Street E, Centre Wellington

Step into your new life in the heart of historic Elora. This beautifully restored four-bedroom century home is located steps away from the shops/dining of the village center and the splendour of the Grand River. Built in 1858, this picturesque house retains much of its defining features and charm, such as high ceilings, original trimwork, doors and hardware. A professional renovation over the last decade has provided all of the comforts and updates of the modern world. A craftsman-style sunporch greets your entry to the centre hall plan and invites you into the massive kitchen/dining room featuring a wall of built-in pantries, custom cabinetry and all-new appliances. (The sunny entry includes a decorative black front door with oval glass, bright tile flooring and beadboard details in the porch.) Relax by the fireplace in your gracious living room with ample space for entertaining with family and friends. (The main living spaces show wide-plank hardwood floors, original mouldings and large windows that flood the rooms with natural light; the main floor also includes a ceiling fan for added comfort.) Main floor amenities include a full bathroom, laundry area (with new washer & dryer) and a bonus room. (The updated main bathroom features a dark-wood vanity, large mirror and a tiled tub/shower surround with modern fixtures.) The second story hosts four generous bedrooms, plenty of storage and a two-piece bathroom. Adding to the possibilities of the home is a formerly legal main floor accessory apartment located at the rear. This space provides a perfect opportunity as an in-law suite, home office or Air B&B. If you desire a full-time tenant, this apartment is easily reinstated and is separately metered for hydro and water. The fully fenced backyard is perfect for outdoor living. It features an attached elevated deck with stairs to the yard, a lower deck with a shed and sitting area, beautiful perennial landscaping with stone edging and a flat mulched area great for a pool, hot tub, gardens, etc. (A stone pathway, mature shade tree and well-maintained plantings create a private, park-like setting.) Two paved driveways with parking for four cars complete this fabulous home. Book your showing today! (id:1945)
