Step into a piece of Waterloo Region history with this stunning pre-Confederation 1860s estate, offering timeless architectural character and unmatched charm in sought-after Bridgeport East. Set on a half-acre lot in the city, this one-of-a-kind home has been renovated while preserving what makes it unique. Historically significant, the home was built nearly 50 years after the area's original settlement and sits on a street honouring the Schweitzer family lineage. From the covered front porch to the soaring ceilings and original farmhouse details, there is something special around every corner. The spacious layout offers 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a large eat-in kitchen, and generous living and dining spaces for family life and entertaining. The location is hard to beat, with quick access to the expressway, Kitchener, Waterloo and Guelph, while still close to great schools, the Grand River, trails, parks and everyday amenities. It is rare to find this much space and privacy without giving up convenience. The backyard is private, peaceful and something special. Surrounded by mature trees, it offers beautiful views, room to spread out, and an in-ground pool ready for long summer days. Host family and friends, relax poolside, dine outdoors, or gather around the fire pit for campfires under the stars. There is space for kids, pets, gardens, games and all the fun of a great backyard. And then there is the garage. It is huge. With room for up to three vehicles, it is a dream setup for car lovers, woodworking, hobbies, a workshop, storage or the ultimate man cave. The finished basement offers a full in-law setup, accessed by a fun spiral staircase and complete with a kitchen, living room, bedroom and bathroom. It is ideal for extended family, guests or anyone needing their own space. You simply do not find properties like this often. A rare opportunity to own a fully renovated historic estate with this much charm, privacy, space, backyard beauty and city convenience! (id:63381)
