About This Property

Built in 1925, this detached all-brick century home is ready for a new steward to take it into its next century. Just a short walk from historic downtown Port Hope, the Ganaraska River, and Lake Ontario, this character-filled residence offers 3 bedrooms plus a versatile finished attic space perfect as a bedroom, family room, or creative retreat. The home offers 2 bathrooms, including a convenient 2-piece on the main level and a thoughtfully designed 5-piece upstairs with a Jacuzzi tub. The upper bath's clever layout places the shower and second vanity in a separate space, allowing two people to enjoy privacy while getting ready at the same time. The laundry is also conveniently located on the second floor, a rare feature for a century home. An eclectic kitchen showcases stone counters, a butcher block island, full cabinet wall, stainless accents, and garden windows. A stunning bay window (added in 2024) in the living area overlooks a beautifully landscaped yard. The home is carpet-free throughout, and features new flooring in all three upstairs bedrooms, a beautiful original wood staircase, unique textured wall finishes, charming stained-glass windows with built-in outlets for accent lighting, and two fireplaces: an antique gas insert (non-functioning) and an electric insert on the third floor. Modern touches include a newer kitchen door (2025) and central air conditioning (2023). Partially finished basement provides an additional flex space currently used as an additional bedroom. An extensively landscaped private back yard oasis features a composite deck, dedicated BBQ pit area, electric service for a hot tub, power outlets throughout for landscape lighting, and two powered sheds, including one that is fully insulated and previously heated by the current owner for year-round use. Set in the heart of Port Hope, known for its vibrant arts community, historic architecture, and scenic waterfront, this property combines timeless style with versatile modern function.
