Listing Description

This property is one of Warkworth's original homes, retaining its original cabin footprint while being expanded over generations. It features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and has undergone significant upgrades in the past 25 years under current ownership. Key upgrades include a complete electrical overhaul to 200-amp service, transforming the upper half-story into a full two-story structure, replacing windows and roofing, adding a new bathroom, constructing a deck, and renovating the family room to feature a cathedral ceiling by opening up the beams. The above-grade floor plan spans 1,820 square feet and offers flexibility in the placement of the primary bedroom. Currently, the primary bedroom is on the second floor, but a spacious main-floor bedroom could easily serve this purpose. The second floor can also be reconfigured to accommodate a fourth bedroom, making it suitable for diverse family arrangements, multi-generational living, or retirees. The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area is centrally located and showcases the original 1800 cabin footprint with exposed beams. An extension includes a family room that benefits from abundant natural light, original timber elements, and an expansive cathedral ceiling, creating a wonderful space for family gatherings. The dry and open basement provides ample storage. The home sits on a double lot in-town, with a fully fenced rear yard offering space for gardening, recreational areas, and more. The property also extends to the crest of the hill. Warkworth boasts a diverse range of establishments, including cafes, restaurants, galleries, artisan markets, and independent businesses. The hospitable residents and scenic views further enhance the area's appeal. It is conveniently located 20 mins from Cobourg, 15 minutes from Brighton, and 10 mins from Campbellford, making it accessible to a variety of attractions. There is also room for a new two-car garage in the large backyard. The property goes up to top of the hill.
All renos done with permits. All appliances included. Open concept 2nd floor easily walled in to create 2 bedrooms and plenty of room to expand the 2-pc to a full bath. Basement potential. There is a capped gas line below the electric fire.
