SS8, as it was formerly
known to all its students in years past, is
now a full time home for the current owners who have enjoyed living here for
the past 26 years. Built in 1875 this brick schoolhouse has been
transformed in the interior with huge century beams in the ceiling,
beautiful extra wide pine trim around all the huge windows (that have been
replaced since the original ones), floor to
ceiling reclaimed brick fireplace and kitchen area with built-in appliances.
There are currently 2 large bedrooms, and the loft
area has still more room to put in another full
bathroom and additional space for finishing. The latest addition with
sunroom, front entranceway and double car garage bring the modern needs to
the century charm of the original building. Upgrades include natural gas
heating, gas cookstove, newer septic system in 2004 and new 200 amp
electrical panel. The one acre lot has good
distance between neighbours and a large deck at the rear.
The original bell tower is still on the premises and will stay with
the home. Room for veggie and flower gardens – it has 2 sheds for outdoor
storage. Located only 7 minutes north of
Orangeville, it is an easy
commute to Brampton, Mississauga
or Newmarket - for those who want to live the
country life and enjoy more of their own space. And...
this property is perfectly positioned to include a home business
occupation. |
