Description
One of the most iconic properties in the area, this beautifully restored and expanded 1824 waterfront home features 4 bedrooms, 3+1 bathrooms, an open-concept great room with a custom artisan kitchen, stone fireplace, 11 ft ceilings, hand-hewn beams, wide-plank pine floors, and original 3 ft thick stone walls. The spacious primary suite includes a sitting room, private balcony, water views, and a luxurious ensuite. Separate 3-bedroom apartment, walkout basement with full bar and stage (speakeasy). Perched on a large lot of direct waterfront access with cascading gardens and expansive decks, only a 10 minute stroll to Hudson's village centre.
Welcome to one of the most iconic homes in the region, an
impeccably restored 1824 stone schoolhouse, where old-world
charm meets modern luxury. Lovingly preserved and
thoughtfully upgraded, this unique property has served many
roles over the past two centuries: as a schoolhouse, a post
office, a general store, and a B&B. Today, it stands as a
one-of-a-kind private residence, filled with warm natural
textures, timeless elegance, and curated design.
The heart of the home is the majestic great room, anchored
by a bespoke kitchen crafted by local artisans. The maple
butcher bloc island and custom cabinetry were designed to
blend seamlessly with the heritage of the home. This
kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful. Deep custom
drawers, integrated compost solution, drop-down utensil
drawer at the sink, and abundant storage make it a cook's
dream and a stunning gathering place.
The main living area invites you to linger, with original
architectural details and a fireplace crowned by a mantel
crafted from beams salvaged during the demolition of the
famed Rhodes Cottage. These subtle touches create a
seamless connection between the past and present, inviting
stories and conversation in every corner.
Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat. A peaceful
sitting room opens onto a private balcony with breathtaking
views of the water. A wall of closets provides ample
storage, while the spa-inspired ensuite features a massive
glass shower, jetted tub, and two vanities - everything you
need to unwind in style.
A separate three-bedroom apartment occupies the top floor,
perfect for extended family, guests, or rental income. It
features its own kitchen, family room, fireplace-lit living
area, laundry facilities, and two bedrooms, providing both
privacy and flexibility.
The full walkout basement is where this home truly
surprises. With original stone walls and warm ambient
lighting, it's been transformed into an entertainer's
dream, complete with a full bar, stage area, and access to
a paved patio. Enhanced electrical circuitry ensures modern
convenience doesn't interfere with old-world ambiance.
In 2006, a carefully planned extension was added. This
addition includes the primary suite, large two-car garage,
and main floor three-piece bathroom, and blends seamlessly
with the character of the original structure.
The outdoor spaces are just as extraordinary. A multilevel
wooden deck steps down into a rebuilt stone courtyard and
terraced garden beds, leading you toward lake access where
a summer dock can be installed.
Behind the walls, essential systems have been brought up to
modern standards, including electrical and plumbing
upgrades.
