Set on 1.88 acres at the edge of historic Perth, this beautifully preserved 1875 stone home blends enduring character with thoughtful modern updates and space to grow. Lovingly maintained, it captures the soul of a true century home while offering today's comforts - most notably a showstopping chef's kitchen anchored by a one-of-a-kind island crafted from a reclaimed church altar. The interior offers three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, including a stunning primary suite with a spa-inspired ensuite and a bright, tranquil bedroom that feels like a private retreat. Original hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and intricate details reflect the craftsmanship of another era. A formal living room with a wood-burning fireplace insert and a separate dining room create inviting spaces for entertaining, while the cozy family room, warmed by another wood fireplace, is perfect for relaxed evenings at home. The dining room also features a natural gas fireplace and a convenient pass-through to the kitchen, ideal for gatherings large and small. Outdoors, enjoy a spacious screened-in solarium, a hot tub on the back deck, and a large barn brimming with potential, whether for a workshop, studio, or even a small flock of chickens. The home is serviced by its own well, providing excellent-quality water. Set well back from the road, the property offers rare privacy and a peaceful, country feel just minutes from downtown Perth's shops, restaurants, and charm. A truly special home with a rich history and plenty of room to imagine what comes next. (id:25961)
