$775,000. Love fresh air and beautiful sunrises? Love authenticity, true workmanship and living in contemporary comfort but surrounded by 19th century history? Nestled near the Village of Balderson, this wonderful property, is only 10 minutes from the beautiful heritage Town of Perth, 20 minutes from Carleton Place, and 45 minutes from Kanata.
This iconic stone homestead is finally hitting the market after nurturing 6 generations of the builder’s descendants!

Thomas Bothwell built this homestead in 1847 and its 20” (approx.) walls have kept its people warm through January’s bitter deep freezes and cool in July’s summer heat for 176 years. Built to last, this incredible home even boasts the original floors – complete with the builder’s hand-forged nails. Windows and doorways are framed by classic solid wood molding.
Entering from the open veranda, through the solid maple door encased by windows, the first floor offers: a welcoming foyer; a bright living room featuring a cozy woodburning stove and huge windows with deep sills that draw in the sunlight; a dining room (also windowed) with easy access to the spacious kitchen which features vintage countertops and cupboards. Off the kitchen sits a laundry/mud room and powder room (Note: many of these stone homes only offered 1 bathroom but in 2001 a fourth upstairs bedroom was converted to make two!) Last but not least on the first floor, in 2000, the original 2-storey summer kitchen was converted to a bright family space featuring sliding doors, a classic exposed stone wall, and more spacious windows for beautiful views.
Head up the stairs in the centre of the home and arrive at the second-floor landing which offers entry to the master and two bedrooms, as well as a full bathroom. Again, deep-silled windows in every room provide a light and airy atmosphere. The grounds provide a mix of classic lawn and garden with the utility buildings and space of a working farm. Outbuildings include a barn with attached cattle shed, milking shed, a lambing shed, and two storage sheds. The barn is not operational and can be refurbished or sold. There is also a small, gated, cedar-railed paddock should you be inclined to dabble in small livestock. Perfect for a family that is ready to leave the hubbub of city life, with 17 acres of open grass and two lines of mature trees. A small pond, perfect for catching frogs or watching birds, occupies the space where gravel for the early roads of the 1840’s was sourced.
Retiring but don’t want to downsize? This quiet refuge is still close to the activities of busy towns like Perth and Carleton Place and offers the opportunity to add your mark to the landscape and buildings. For more information, text, Indy12 to 613-707-0882
