Once a historic schoolhouse, now beautifully transformed into a one-of-a-kind residence, this home is filled with character and charm, built in the early 1900s and thoughtfully updated for modern living. This unique property features a finished lower level with a separate entrance, ideal for a home-based business, in-law suite, or private guest retreat, as well as a backyard oasis that feels like a world of its own. The open principal living space showcases soaring original hand-hammered tin ceilings that have been powder-coated white, creating an unforgettable statement. Sunlight streams through large windows with custom wood shutters, illuminating the spacious living and dining areas designed for effortless entertaining. The expansive eat-in kitchen features an island with a breakfast bar, pendant lighting, matching appliances, a tile backsplash, and a walkout to the back deck. A cozy breakfast area with exposed brick is the perfect spot for informal family meals. On the main floor, you'll find the primary suite complete with dual closets, a private walkout, and a bathroom. Downstairs, the updated lower level offers a large recreation room with recessed lighting, perfect for lounging or game nights. A spacious bedroom, office or guest bedroom, three-piece bathroom and a powder room, plus a laundry room, provide excellent flexibility for today's needs. The outdoor spaces are just as captivating. A welcoming front deck sets the tone for morning coffee, while the backyard unfolds into a true retreat. Enjoy summer afternoons by the pool with a deck surround, relax beneath mature trees (including fruit trees), or wander through vibrant gardens. A rustic gazebo by the koi pond invites quiet moments, and even a chicken coop adds to the charm of this remarkable property.
