There are homes that are simply places to live and then there are homes that tell a story. This one begins in the 1870s, first built as a small community church in the peaceful hamlet of Lotus, Ontario and now 150 years later, has been lovingly transformed into a truly one-of-a-kind residence blendi...ng history, character, and charm, with thoughtful updates and everyday functionality. Set on a .66 ac corner lot surrounded by a beautiful landscape w/ plum, pear, and apple trees; currant bushes, a sweet pollinator bed, a cottage garden & singing birds. A little library graces the driveway, providing a welcoming touch for neighbours and passersby. And while privacy defines the setting, the home is just a short drive from Port Perry, Peterborough, Bowmanville, and now, the 407. From the original front door, wood-burning stove, stained-glass windows, and high ceilings to the convenience of a garage, renovated bathrooms, and a lovely walk-out to the back deck. The versatile outbuildings w/ heat & hydro are an exciting aspect to the property. Originally zoned for chinchilla farming, they've also served as an artist and music studio as well as a honey-processing space for backyard hives. Today these 4 joined rooms stand ready to support whatever passions projects you bring with you. These buildings are treasures like no other. A chicken coop awaits your happy chickens to lay delicious eggs; a filled-in pool, now used as a garden, can be easily restored. A purpose-built root cellar in the garage allows for overwinter produce & bulbs. This is not just a property to purchase; its a property to cherish. We invite you to come and see it for yourself. Walk through that front door. Look through the stained-glass windows over the rolling hills of the Oak Ridges. Feel the warmth of the property that has been so lovingly cared for. Because once you do, you'll understand this is more than a house. Its a home like no other.
