Description

This isnt just a home - its a New Glasgow landmark. Crafted in 1876 and filled with rich history, timeless character, and bold Victorian design, this residence has been meticulously preserved and thoughtfully enhanced with modern comfort throughout. The grandeur of this 4-bedroom home is undeniable from the moment you arrive. Set on a 0.54-acre lot - the largest residential lot in the neighbourhood - the striking gables, pea-stone path, and covered veranda hint at the beauty inside. Step through the front door and craftsmanship takes centre stage: refinished hardwood floors with bespoke inlays, 11 ceilings, 22 crown mouldings, detailed millwork, and oversized windows that fill each room with natural light. Generous living spaces include a formal living room with original French doors and a grand arched opening into a cozy sitting room anchored by a wood-burning stove. The dining room enjoys garden views and connects through a butler door to a functional kitchen with new appliances. A convenient mudroom leads to the driveway and new single-car garage. Take the formal or back staircase to the second floor featuring a tastefully updated bathroom with clawfoot tub, four spacious bedrooms (one with a half-bath), and a charming three-season sunroom overlooking the neighbourhood. Comfort upgrades include ductless heating & cooling, a new propane hot-water boiler running through the original radiators, updated roofing and electrical, new appliances, fresh paint throughout, and upgraded attic insulation. Minutes from downtown New Glasgow, this is a rare opportunity to own a property that has shaped the communitys story for nearly 150 years - and is ready for its next chapter. Welcome to 202 Washington Street - history you can live in. (id:56844)
