Cross Streets: County Road 2 & Peters Road. ** Directions: See GPS. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Cramahe Township history, thoughtfully transformed for modern living. Once home to Salem's one-room schoolhouse, this truly distinctive property blends the character of its past with the warmth and functionality of a comfortable three-bedroom home, all set on a beautifully maintained one-acre property between Colborne and Brighton. The original schoolhouse is undoubtedly the showpiece. Taken back to the studs, insulated, drywalled and completely renovated, this remarkable room retains its exposed original beams and a soaring ceiling. At the same time, a thoughtfully incorporated loft adds architectural interest and valuable additional space. With its own ductless heat pump, the former classroom offers exceptional flexibility as a dramatic living and entertaining space, creative studio, library, inspiring home office or workspace. The split-level addition provides a cozy and practical separation of living spaces. The inviting primary bedroom features a built-in dresser flanked by closets, along with an additional closet for generous storage. The spacious eat-in kitchen offers abundant counter space and bar seating, while the adjoining living room provides a comfortable place to gather. A full bathroom completes this level, with two additional bedrooms located upstairs. The unfinished basement beneath the addition is presently used as a workshop and provides valuable space for projects and storage. The property also features a garage, Steel roof (2026) and an energy-efficient heat-pump system (2025). Outside, the approximately one-acre lot has been lovingly landscaped with established perennial gardens and inviting outdoor spaces. Full of warmth, history and personality, this is far more than an ordinary country home-it is a special piece of Salem's story, ready for its next chapter. The Salem Schoolhouse is officially ready for class! (id:27476)
