Cross Streets: Watford/Downey. ** Directions: Watford to Downey. Originally built in 1874 and carefully relocated in 2002 to lovely Downey Drive on a premium 50 ft lot, this stunning board & batten beauty has been lovingly maintained to deliver every modern comfort while preserving its timeless character. Inside, original wide plank pine floors run throughout, paired with curved archways, waffle ceilings, crown moulding, wainscoting, and custom built-ins. Statement-making high baseboards and elevated trim detail elevate every room, adding the kind of architectural craftsmanship you simply can't replicate. The chef's kitchen features walnut counters, stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and ample storage. The sunlit great room is anchored by a floor-to-ceiling gas fireplace, with two walkouts to a covered side porch and a raised rear deck overlooking the private yard. A formal dining room and elegant living room with double doors leading into the main floor office complete the level. Upstairs offers a second primary, two additional bedrooms, a beautiful 3-piece bath with built-ins, clawfoot tub and wainscoting - plus a laundry hookup. The fully finished lower level is a private retreat - a primary suite with his & hers closets (auto lighting), an egress window and a stunning 4-piece ensuite with heated floors, dual vanity, pocket door, and whole-room shower. Rounding out the lower level, you'll find a spacious rec room, a convenient 2-piece bath and an exercise room with attached laundry - all set on a Dricore subfloor with spray foam insulation throughout for year-round comfort. Set in one of Brooklin's finest pockets, you're a short walk from downtown, top-rated schools, and beautiful parks. A true gem where heritage meets modern living. Location, character, and craftsmanship - all in one. (id:27476)
