About Property

A Sweet Woodland Retreat. Nestled among the trees, this enchanting 1907 schoolhouse has been lovingly transformed into a delightful country home. Its welcoming front porch invites you to slow down and enjoy your morning coffee while watching hummingbirds dance among the flowers, or wind down with an evening drink as you take in the perennial gardens. Inside, the large eat-in kitchen is the heart of the home, boasting a stainless steel stove and refrigerator and cosy island workspace plus hidden hatch door access to the crawl space cellar. The warm pine-floored living room, anchored by a wood-burning stove, creates an inviting space to gather. Off of the living room is a second gathering room ~ family room with soaring ceilings and abundant light. This room could easily serve as a main-floor bedroom. For convenience, the powder room includes a stackable washer and dryer. Upstairs, the charming sloped ceilings and half-walls make the loft a perfect nook for working from home or curling up with a book. The primary bedroom features double closets for ample storage, and a full bathroom completes this level. The property itself is just as welcoming. A standalone wooden workshop offers flexibility as storage, a garage conversion, or a creative studio. The gardens are a pollinators paradise, brimming with perennials that attract birds and bees, while a serene koi pond adds to the tranquility. Located only 15 minutes from Almonte and even closer to Lanark Village, this one-of-a-kind heritage gem seamlessly blends history, nature, and comfort.
