Some homes have history. This one has a name.Known as The Vanderwater House, this remarkable 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom country home is believed to date back to 1819, with over 200 years of character and a story all its own. Set on just under 2 acres and only 15 minutes from town and Highway 401, it's country living with a little more personality.The classic white exterior, wraparound porch and striking green metal roof set the tone. Inside, original wide plank floors, soaring ceilings, substantial trim, an ornate staircase, vintage chandeliers and a clawfoot tub bring old-world charm in all the right ways. The spacious kitchen takes an unexpected turn with stainless steel work surfaces and commercial-inspired details, while a wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and character.An attached carriage house with original timber framing, a hobby shed and chicken coop add to the property's possibilities. Outside, mature black locust trees, a patio and nearly two acres of countryside create a setting worth slowing down for.And while its history runs deep, the home has seen meaningful updates, including a high-efficiency furnace (2024), septic system, plumbing and electrical improvements (2025), and a metal roof (2019).Historic, unexpected and anything but ordinary. The Vanderwater House is ready for its next chapter.
