About This Property

Heritage Elegance Meets Modern Refinement in the Heart of Port Hope.

Nestled among mature trees and just a short stroll from the boutiques, cafes, and charm of downtown, it offers both timeless appeal and everyday convenience. Inside, 10-foot ceilings, original high baseboards and casings, and oversized south-facing windows preserve the homes historic character, while luxurious finishes provide modern sophistication. The open-concept living and dining area features a classic fireplace and flows effortlessly into a custom kitchen with quartz countertops, a striking black herringbone marble backsplash, centre island, and drawer-in-drawer cabinetry designed for seamless organization. Upstairs, natural light pours into three spacious bedrooms. The spa-inspired main bathroom is a true retreat, complete with heated floors, an oversized custom glass shower and herringbone marble tile, rainfall head, and a Toto Washlet for added comfort. Every modern detail has been carefully considered - smart switches and outlets, updated plumbing to the main hookup, and new electrical in the kitchen and baths ensure effortless day-to-day living. Step outside into a beautifully landscaped backyard sanctuary.
