*Built around 1942 this charming Dutch Colonial is situated on 1.44 acres only a short walk to Peach Orchard beach, boat launch & Lower Summerland. Lovingly maintained for over 4 decades by the current owner this solid home is a rare find & built in an era when homes were built to last. Original warm wood features & built-ins throughout really help preserve the character & charm and newer gas heating, hot water on demand, quartz countertops, cherry hardwood flooring & some upgraded electrical & plumbing are some of the more modern conveniences. A cozy, functioning wood fireplace anchors the living room, adding more warmth & charm and 4 big bedrooms upstairs. In 2011 the basement was converted to a legal 1 bedroom suite ideal for extended family or private guest accommodation. This remarkable family home is tucked away in a truly secluded, peaceful setting with Eneas creek running through the front of the property. Mature landscape, lovely flower & vegetable gardens, terraced sloping hillside has grown fruit trees, grapes & ground crops in the past & surely can again in the future. Plenty of paved parking for extra toys & RVs. This is a truly special property - with only 2 owners over the past 65 years - a rare opportunity to own a piece of Summerland's history. (id:6769)
