Historic Schoolhouse Turned Dream Home! Built in 1904, Harold School S.S. No. 14 has been beautifully transformed into a truly unique residence. From the original school bell still resting in the belfry to the character-filled hardwood floors, history is alive here - yet perfectly balanced with thoughtful modern updates. A recently built gorgeous covered front porch enhances the exterior and offers the ideal spot for morning coffee or evening drinks in a peaceful country setting where you can often watch the neighbours pass by in their horse-drawn buggies. Step inside to soaring 11' ceilings and oversized windows that flood the open living and dining areas with natural light. The updated kitchen boasts a massive quartz island designed for entertaining, leading seamlessly to a large bright pantry with a walkout to a 12' x 12' deck. The main floor also features a 4-piece bath with soaker tub, two spacious bedrooms, and convenient laundry. Upstairs, in the loft, a private suite awaits with skylights, stunning inlay hardwood floors, a 2-piece ensuite, and walk-in closet. The lower level expands your living space with a freshly painted rec room, office, and plenty of storage. Outside, a 24' x 30' insulated garage (built in 2020) with hydro, 10' ceilings, woodstove, and lean-to delivers incredible versatility for hobbies, storage, or workshop use. With modern upgrades, efficient utilities, and high-speed internet, this rare offering blends historic charm with everyday comfort in a welcoming country setting.
