Built in 1840, this Colonial with strong Gothic Revival influence offers a level of character that simply cannot be replicated. There is a quiet confidence here, an authenticity shaped by nearly two centuries of history. Original features include a brick fireplace with beehive oven, hand-hewn beams, a hidden vertical sliding stair door, pointed-arch wall niches, and Gothic Revival moulding throughout, bringing depth and personality to the main house. A clawfoot tub with circular shower curtain, custom-built antique vanity, and a high tank toilet with pull chain preserve the integrity of an era that was both bold and sophisticated. A large sunroom connects to the kitchen with a pass-through window, allowing light to pour in from an entire wall of sliders. Step onto the balcony to watch the water glisten, or settle in beside the woodstove during a snowstorm. This space works effortlessly year round. With 450 feet of frontage along Lake Todd in the no-wake zone, the property offers a calm, protected waterfront environment ideal for swimming, paddling, and enjoying local wildlife, along with your own private beach. Beyond the main residence, the property offers uncommon versatility. Unit two, a converted carriage house, includes a convenient mudroom, a large living room with hardwood floors, a private balcony, and a galley kitchen. Upstairs, there is a large bedroom, a bonus room perfect for an at home office, and a bathroom with a stand up shower. Unit three features an open concept kitchen connected to a large living room with a wood stove, along with one upstairs bedroom and bathroom. Both units are fully separate, offering strong income potential or multigenerational living while maintaining privacy. A property that brings together historic character, waterfront living, and established rental revenue, all while maintaining privacy for the primary home.
