Welcome to this truly picturesque brick farmhouse, circa 1860, gracefully set on 56 acres in a peaceful country setting just minutes from Hwy 115 and the 407, offering an easy commute to Oshawa, Peterborough and Toronto. This lovingly restored home blends historic charm with thoughtful modern updates. Perched on the entire west side of quiet Cedar Valley Road, currently approximately 35 acres of workable land stretch across rolling fields, while the remainder is a tranquil mix of forest and a meandering stream at the northern edge. The property lies on a dead-end road shared with just two other homes, ensuring exceptional privacy and serenity. A welcoming front porch leads to a classic centre hall plan with a grand staircase flanked by a formal living room and a cozy family room with a fireplace. The main floor boasts soaring 10' ceilings, wide plank floors, restored millwork, and abundant natural light through large, new windows. The heart of the home is the inviting eat-in kitchen, featuring a freestanding wood cookstove that adds warmth and character, along with a beautifully restored tin ceiling, custom wide plank floors, granite counters, an island, and high-end appliances. Just off the kitchen is a pantry with laundry, and the adjacent former summer kitchen offers excellent storage. Above it, a charming loft provides comfortable guest accommodations. Completing the main level is a mudroom, a newly renovated bathroom, and a sun-soaked, south-facing covered porch perfect for enjoying the peaceful countryside. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, including a generous primary suite with an ensuite featuring a walk-in shower. Built with impressive craftsmanship, this home features double and triple brick walls, a newer steel roof, modern drywall, air conditioning, and countless upgrades throughout. Whether you're dreaming of a hobby farm, country retreat, or a forever home, this timeless property offers an unmatched blend of heritage, beauty, and practicality.
