775 MURRAY AVENUE, Bathurst, New Brunswick E2A1V3

Known locally as The Presidents Cottage, 775 Murray Ave. Is a home steeped in history, elegant design and exceptional craftsmanship. Built as a summer retreat for the Mill President, this hone was designed to impress guests but also offers residents a warm and spacious living space. The Great Room upstairs as well as the finished basement have been preserved and are still appointed with original pine walls, nine foot ceilings and rough hewn beams that were meant to showcase the wood that made the mill so prosperous. The house has also had major upgrades over the past 5 years: 18 new windows, exterior insulation, siding, standing seam metal roof offering longevity and durability, rebuilt sun porch, 3 newly constructed patios, updated showers and 3 new heat pumps. The majestic stone wall is not only impressive, but elevates and shields the house from road noise, while the foliage and space offered in the back yard give the homeowner a chance to enjoy seclusion and privacy only a few minutes walk to downtown shops, , bars and parks. In the early days the back of the property was the site of a 4 terraced garden, with the original stairs and foot paths eargerly waiting a gardeners touch and there is an apple tree that not only offers shade but produces amazing golden delicious apples every fall. Also on site is a detached shed insulated and wired for heat and power, and the large private driveway offering room for multiple cares and visitors. This home wont disappoint! (id:39198)
